I have found some components or something very comparable, can someone tell me if it would be a good build? Or if there are any better options it would be greatly appreciated to here. I am looking for a good CAD box. Like to try my first build, but am open to getting one built quickly by someone if feasible.

This has a better CPU, but a worse GPU.

This is if you need a monitor and OS if you want to game and CAD:

no monitor needed
will not be gaming on this box
like to stay with a Quad core i7 4.0GHz or higher since Autodesk Inventor does not utilize multiple core processors except for FEA- unless there other reasons to use a 6 core
GTX 970 4GB



 
If you're not gaming you dont need the 970 at all. The 750 ti is more than enough to handle day to day tasks, and even handles games well to. If you dont want to get the better i7, made of workstations, then you can just get this one and OC it.

Have to admit there probably would be some gaming on this box. What is your time frame on making a box and shipping it?




 
Ok, then if you want to game, just get the 970:

Just to let you know, I'm not any company or anything, and we were going under the assumption that you would use this list to build the PC yourself.

If you want me to build it and ship it to you, I can do that.

PM me if you're interested.
