So, I asked around for some advice a few days ago, but now that I’ve actually secured a bit more funding for this purchase, I was wondering if it might be possible to squeeze out a few more upgrades for that $167 difference 🙂. Basically, I'm looking to buy this setup in cash, and my core requirements are pretty straightforward:
It needs an Intel processor, and it has to handle AutoCAD 3D and similar software without breaking a sweat. As for gaming, it's certainly not a priority, though I suppose it wouldn't hurt if it could manage a few titles here and there. Thanks!

I'd rather go with an amd build. It’s just smoother to put together.
