Hi,

Looking for a good PC setup primarily for 3D graphics modeling and rendering.

What could be the best GPU/CPU/RAM combination for that task.

1)
My budget is ~ $1000 for the whole PC HW.

2)
Will be using mainly below applications and expect to run them smooth and fast, and also in parallel (running some of them simultaneously):
AutoCAD 2015, Revit 2016, Rhinoceros 5, SketchUp 2015, Maya 2015, and Matlab

3)
For now, not looking for Video Editing and Rendering (animation), but perhaps in the future!

4)
Not planning to run multiple screens. Aiming for 1080p on 24" screen size.

5)
Read many conflicts between GTX or Quadro and which one is better for this task, but if it happens that GTX card can do the job smooth and fast, then will prefer it over Quadro so could do some gaming :)


Thanks in advance!
