Hey there!
I am new to this whole PC building thing and I've been wanting to build a PC for my boyfriend as a Christmas present this year. He games (more specifically R6Siege) and is an engineer so he will likely be using software such as AutoCAD, Solidworks and Inventor. I am trying to find a relatively affordable build that is decent enough. I don't know of a budget that is considered "low" or "affordable" so I would also need some guidance there. I used the PC Builder and when asked of what the primary use was, I had put 3D modeling & Animation, which I was unsure if that was the right descriptor? Regardless, here is what was suggested, and I wanted to know if someone with similar usage of their workstation would recommend this build. I'm not thinking about upgrading anytime soon, and I am in the U.S so I would be buying parts here (or elsewhere since a lot of stuff in general is shipped from overseas?). I really appreciate you're help!
