Hello!
I want to replace my deskop and I would like to do an optimized machine for big 3D CAD (Catia and Solidworks of a complete car assembly). I current have the following:

. motherboard - ga-990-fxa-ud3
. memory - 12gb ram
. hdd - 3 separared ssd, one for Win7, other for software, other for storage
. gpu - firepro 4900
. processor - amd fx 8120

machined is for cad.
with that configuration I am not happy when working on big cadmodels, at work I use a dell precision t7100 which is much better.

I believe my home machine must use a Xeon, have at least 32GB of RAM.
It must be a good reliable board. Does anyone has any suggestion of a serious cad model machine that would be comparable with dell workstations? Could you please share the spec?

It must run win 7, catia and solidworks. Able to work on car cadmodel big assemblies.

Fernando
