Need advice on a build for a friend. He is a landscape architect running some CAD 3D modeling software, I think it's a version of AutoCAD.
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: Sooner the better
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: CAD 3D modeling and Design, speed of rendering and read/write speed to hard disks
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: he does have a monitor, but thinking about a new dual-monitor design.
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: newegg.com
PARTS PREFERENCES: any parts that work the best for this build. Should I go Intel or AMD? Have had luck with Gigabyte Moboards in the past.
OVERCLOCKING: no overclocking. Thinking about crossfire for the graphics cards.
MONITOR RESOLUTION: dual 1920x1200
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: something reliable, high speed for this type of 3D modeling with dual-monitor support.
