Build for a friend (CAD)

Hi All,

I was just wondering if a 4th Gen i7 with more threads would be better than a cheaper Quadro card for CAD or vice versa?

 

Cheers,

You do know that i7's and Quadros are completely different things, yes? Like they dont even have the same purpose.

I know, to focus on the CPU side or GPU side, how's that.

@Florb it all depends on what they will be doing with their rig. What will they be doing?
