AutoCAD Pro E suite CPU consumption
you should consider whether multicore performance matters more for your CAD tools or if they mainly rely on graphics acceleration. For example, comparing a 3.2GHz G3258 with an i7-4790 at the same clock speed shows cost and power savings are possible. You’ll likely need a GPU like K620 or 420+ with 16GB DDR3 RAM. Regarding the CPU, this setup is meant for beginners—just stick to what you need for your class.
