Hey what's your budget? IIRC both of those will not give you a very optimal solution for your digital workload as they're both low end machines. The A series are usually fine for normal computing and the like. However, given your autocad and 3ds max2012 you'll most likely want to go a bit higher up if anything you're doing is time sensitive. Pretty much the same thing with the i5.
