Hi, I need help with selection of components. I don't need OS. I will use it primarily for work in CAD (ArchiCAD) and 3D programs, as well as the playback of HD videos. Configuration should be quiet to work at night. My budget is $1500.

My suggestion:
ENERMAX NAXN 80+ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...2080%2b%20500W
Fractal Design Define R3 Black http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...0Black%20Pearl
Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3P-B3 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...A-Z68X-UD3P-B3
Intel Core i5-2500K (OC 4.7GHz) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-072-_-Product
Kingston 8GB (kit 2x 4GB) 1333MHz http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-075-_-Product
Noctua NH-U9B SE2 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...20NH-U9B%20SE2
OCZ Vertex Series 60GB http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227394
TP-LINK TL-WN781ND Wireless Adapter http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...K%20TL-WN781ND
Western Digital Caviar Green 2TB http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-514-_-Product

What do you think about SSD? Is it useful for me?

Thanks for the feedback.

AutoCAD likes low CAS RAM, if ArchiCAD behaves differently ...

Build allows for 2nd GFX card at later date should gaming become a priority. PSU is 1st tier and nothing else comes close in its price range. BR Player provided for the movies.

Is the ram voltage 1.65V problem for CPU?

I think that there is no difference between 1333MHz and 1600MHz.

Your build is silent?
