jbgraphic Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 (edited) So I am a new student and need to build a pc, my wife has given me around $700 to complete the build so any suggestions to make my dollar work is appreciated. I will need it for Cad work (autocad and solid works) and some 3d max work. I will also play games on it like WOW and maybe a few others. Remembering that this is for a student so only really needs to be a basic setup as I will build a new machine in about 2 years when I am done with classes. Here is one that was suggested to me any thoughts? I am not sure if the graphic card is overkill or not but that is what was suggested? Wish List: Qty.
