Thanks! seems you all think the GPU is more important so I would look to swap that for a 1080 or 1080ti just to make sure!

That looks great thanks! I notice you went for a 1080ti, will this make a huge difference or will be saving some money and getting an 8GB 1080 suffice? Just wondering how big the improvement is from 1080 to 1080ti for my needs?

Thought about the Quadro but since I will not be using a true 10 bit monitor or rendering anything that will take long enough to benefit from the added stability I thought it would be better to get a more powerful card at that price point as the Quadro would increase the budget alot. Also the CAD use wont be anything overly complex and parts will be fairly low. Have you used a Quadro card and are they worth the price? If so then I will definitely consider that!

Hi Everyone New here but just wanted to get people opinions on a small business workstation build. If anyone has any alternatives or better ideas I would love to hear them! Not built something for this use before so if anyone has and has some insight that would help a lot! What will be the main use? Main use for this PC will be every day office tasks, a lot of spreadsheets and document writing, along with email and web browsing. It will also be used for CAD using autodesk inventor and content creation using Inkscape, gimp, photoshop, Illustrator, Lightroom and premiere pro. Basically it needs to do everything at a reasonable pace but will never be used for gaming. Budget: I would like to keep this sub £2500 (4220 CAD according to DDG) The Monitor: This is one thing I'm really not sure on, I have gone with 27" 1440 as I've heard that unless you go 40" with 4k then stuff like spreadsheets and document writing can become hard on the eyes. Also any video editing will be 1080 (along with 2k go pro and scaled down) for the foreseeable. 100%sRGB is good, don't really want to splash out for 100% Adobe RGB, unless you disagree with this and its more useful than I realise?
