Hey guys! I'm in the market for a new rig and I wanted to come to you folks and get your opinion.
1) Which rig do you think would be better for gaming/3D CAD modeling, and relatively intensive CPU usage with excel and other software?
2) Any recommendations? Any pieces to add, switch out, etc.?

System Usage from Most to Least Important: 2D/3D CAD, intensive excel spreadsheets, gaming, internet browsing with an extreme amount of tabs
Are you buying a monitor: Yes, 3 monitors - I'd like three monitors for my current rig but I'll purchase them outside of the budget.
Parts to Upgrade: N/A - new system.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes, OEM Windows 10
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: N/A - all are fine.
Location: San Francisco, CA, USA
Parts Preferences: N/A - whatever you guys think is best.
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Probably not, atleast not yet.
Your Monitor Resolution: I'd like a minimum of 3 x 1920x1080.
Additional Comments: Quiet, fan-cooled.
Thanks,
