and one important note...i'm from south india...here atmospheric temperature is minimum 25 deg celsius and maximum is about 40 deg celsius...for this condition which one is best suitable...

Depends on what you need it for in the end. If its straight 2D or 3D CAD, then you don't necessarily need a top of the line CPU. A mid range quad core or even dual core is good for almost all CAD programs. However, if you plan to do any engineering simulation or rendering, you are better off with more cores as those types of programs will utilize more than CAD. Also, if temperature is an issue you can always add a water-cooler to the CPU. Having a good GPU will help too as it will even out texture, rotations, and models when working on complex builds. RAM will also be a factor for CAD, perhaps the most important factor. You'll want at least 8 GB. Best bet is to find out what the software you're using recommends as minimum requirements.

Bottom line, brand doesn't matter as much what your bottom line requirement is. If you're on a budget AMD is probably the way to go.

thank u sir...i think amd fx 6300 along with firepro series is enough for my work because i have a tight budget...and help me to find a perfect mobo for that...

I run the FX6300 with a Gigabyte ga-970a-d3p motherboard which has a very good chip-set for the price. The fx6300 is a good choice of processor combined with that board and you can upgrade to an eight core processor later if you need to. The 6300 is very good at multitasking without any lag issues.

The GA-970 would handle a firepro such as a V5900. Be careful though that you get the best motherboard you can if you are getting a card more powerful than that as the chipset needs to be able to handle the bandwidth.
