I work for a company in the IT dept. anyways we are hiring on a new person to help in construction and facility's making CAD layouts and such. Money isn't an issue but i would like to piece together a beast that will be more than sufficient for this new employee to do his work.

Any suggestions.

You might want to look into a ivy-bridge extreme CPU if you really need the extra cores, but they wont have the TSX-extension, which will come in handy in the future.

The GPU is a overkill, but it was a rather example that autoCAD run better on cuda.

Come check out www.enceptia.com we offer sales/support/learning for autocad.
videocard is WAAAAAY overkill... most of our machines work well with just a k600, with an i7 processor.
We also offer a couple of autocad desktops you might be interested in.
