Hey guys, came up with those specs for a new PC that's going to be used for basic 2D AutoCAD sketching and 3D modeling and rendering with architectural design software.

Just need a finale confirmation or suggestions/improvements.
Trying to achieve best money/value system.



Processor - AMD Ryzen 7 1700 AM4 BOX
Motherboard - Gigabyte AB350-Gaming 3 / AM4
Case + PSU - FSP HYPER 500W + Fractal Design Core 2500 Black
RAM - Corsair DDR 4 8G (4GX2) 2400 CL14 Vengance LPX Red
GPU - Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1060 VR Ready GV-N1060WF2OC-3GD
SSD - Samsung SSD EVO 850 250GB



Will I be able to OC this system later on?


TY all :)

yes, a bit of overclock but the psu should be bigger, 600 watts for that

the rest looks good to me, if you can get a x370 mainboard for overclocking more stable that would be better

try to get 16 gbs of ram, for your autocad and similar tasks more ram is always very good

the gpu, is it a 3gb model? tyr to get a 6 gbs, more vram for modeling helps you
 
I would sudjest going with a larger psu if you are planning on overclocking just to be safe looks like a solid build if you are considering gaming i would go for a 1tb blue as well as the ssd so you have a place to store alot of games you /should be able to overclock
 
Agreed 600w Seasonic or 650w EVGA G2/G3 for PSU

For your work you are going to need AT LEAST 16gb of ram if not 32, 8gb is not going to cut it.

Where is long term storage? That 250gb disk will fill up quick if you do not have some other storage.

Ok so i changed PSU to fsp hyper 600w, 16gb ram of the same type, and 6gb gtx 1060.

No need long term storage ATM.

Any other suggestions?
 
FSP is not that good of PSU. The PSU is the heart of your system that needs to provide stable reliable power at many different voltage ranges. This is not the part to cheap out on.

As stated look for something from seasonic or super flower or an EVGA G2/G3 serries.
