quadro 5000 seems better in sloidworks and autocad. the k4000~k2200 in inventor if I'm not mistaken.

ok thanks guys. Nah I'm not gonna go over $550 or k2200 price range for the gpu. Although I was thinking about getting the quadro 5000 and later on sli with another 5000 since the k2200 can't sli. Unless I should just stick to one? I'll look at the geforce

Thanks btw. What makes the k2200 better? k1114

It's my first build so theres a lot for me to consider. No I haven't looked at amd. I was told their firepro W5100 believe is equivalent. I just decided to look at quadro because I kept reading their drivers and support are good and better. I also didn't want to read more stuff for firepros...

Hi I was suggested main these parts a while back for my cad workstation build. Cpu: Xeon e5-1620v3 mobo: supermicro x10sra gpu: quadro k2200 I stumbled upon the quadro 5000 and was wondering on how it compares with the k2200? Is the archetecture too old or is still a good card to get. It does...

Hi, so I found this X10SRA-O and was wondering if its the same as the X10SRA- F you suggested? X10SRA-O http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813182958&cm_re=c612-_-13-182-958-_-Product I'm not sure about it because I don't see it on SuperMicro's list...

Hello again. Unfortunately I'm still looking. I still want the capabilities I originally asked for. For this board Supermicro X10SRA-F ~$300. I found this one for $399 on Amazon, but there's the F-O and other similar models that are less costly. I'm not sure on the difference though...

Hi again, I wanted to say im looking into finally buying the parts. I was busy with school and had to save up a bit again. I'm checking around for prices now and similar parts to what you suggested for cpus and mobos. most likely all go with the quadro though.

Yeah sorry, I can't find what I thought of. I think I must of thought of something else when I was skimming through specs on other workstation boards and GPUs.

"Here's an example of doing this build on X99, and even taking advantage of the smaller mATX form factor options here:" Also, is the advantage that it provides more physical space and the price?

Oh, I had read that someone said that the that the Intel Core i7-5820K made their fans work more than a Xeon, but never mind that. Yeah I did basically get that from the articles on ECC ram, I may just have over thought it at the time. Thanks. Well I started my classes so I've hadn't as much...

Hmm, so from my interpretation of the articles. ECC performance isn't much of a decrease compared to standard? As far as the reliability and the failure rates between both, it doesn't seem too bad for home use, but would be good to have since I'm a student with all sorts of files. I take it? The...

Sorry if I'm asking to many questions by the way. I'm slowly reading stuff and trying to know the parts I'm going to need.

Thanks a lot for expanding on your suggestions. I do like that the Supermicro X10SRA-F Motherboard will last a couple a years. So is it required or highly recommended to use ECC ram then, for CAD work? Would it be ok with out it? How about a 6-core CPU like this one Intel Core i7-5820K Haswell-E...
