Best Desktop configuration for Interior Design (Cad, 3D, SketchUp, Rendering, Photoshop etc.,)

[forinforom]

I'm planning to upgrade my desktop for professional works in Interior Design.

Work : AutoCAD, 3D, SketchUp modelling, rendering, Photoshop, Coreldraw, Presentations, Graphics (basically work on interior design & creative work softwares)
Require good storage space + lot of RAM + a good processor + graphics card

Present Desktop configuration :
Intel® Core™ i3-530 Processor (2.93 GHz)
STORAGE : 500GB HDD SATA ; DVDRAM
RAM : 8GB
GRAPHICS : AMD Radeon HD5450

Kindly suggest better suitable configuration. Budget not decided yet. But parts to be bought in India.

Thanks in advance!!!

you know, it will help a lot if some estimate of a budget were available; looking at your present build, I seriously doubt if you can go with the recommended build; jut the recommended motherboard alone costs more than your entire build at the time of purchase;

ideally, around one to 1.2 lakh INR gets you a good build, and at least 60-75 k to get a workable build for your needs; I am not saying we cannot have builds lower, mine was just 30k but it was for a very different purpose

let me know your budget and we can tune based on that

Hi @HalfLife Thanks.. Looking out for 3 budget configurations :

1) INR 25k-40k
2) INR 50k-75k
3) Best suited & available in lowest possible price
