Are these Components Compatible and Good?

Hi! This is the first time I'm building a PC. I'll use it for modelling in 3D and occasionally gaming. I will NOT animate and edit videos. So... I was wondering if those components are all compatible? Is this a good setup?



Other parts:


Please, note that I live in Brazil. Things here are VERY expensive. I picked the best parts that fit my budget (8.500 reais - or about 3.900 dollars)

I can't afford anything here like a Nvidea Quadro with that money. And I can't import it. It would get much more expensive with shipping rates and customs.

But suggestions of other good components are welcome.

Thank you!

What 3-D software are you using. Some software would greatly benefit from a workstation class card- they don't need to be that expensive. Nvidia Qudro costs allot, however the AMD FirePro cards are better.

I do 3-D modelling in Solidworks and Geomagic Design and a workstation card is a must for that type of CAD application. Other software like Blender or Rhino will work fine on a gaming card.

Hi! Thank you for your answer. I'll use Zbrush and Maya. I saw GTX 780 Nvidia Graphic Card in Autodesk's list of recommendations. So, I picked it because it has the best value. But it's still pricey here.
 


Ah in that case you'll be fine- the key with cad software is get what is reccomended. I'm into engineering cad which doesn't normally work well on desktop cards.

Overall that's a nice machine, can't really go wrong with an i7 and a GTX 780 :)
