Hey Guys,
So I'm a sophomore in high school, and I'm taking an Engineering course that utilizes drafting software such as Inventor '16 and AutoCAD. We're taking a look at upgrading the outdated PCs in the lab (I'm talking '07 Dell Precision Series PCs running Vista,) considering that nearly 10-15 students have been working on Laptops for the past 2 weeks, and those laptops were confirmed to be moved out of the classroom. My question to you guys is, do you have any recommendations for a new PC for the school to buy? Of course, since it is a large organization, the PCs should be from a large prebuilt company such as dell, or HP. I was looking at Dell's XPS series, but saw that they only had GT 730s in there, which kind of voids the purpose, since AutoCAD supposedly has some graphic acceleration built in with discrete GPUs.
Our plan is to find a prebuilt, and then throw in something like a 750 ti, so I'm just seeing what your thoughts or recommendations for a prebuilt are. Thanks!
