Looking at building a new workstation, for around £3000. It will mainly be used for Solidworks, rendering (SW Visualise/Keyshot) and Blender.

Looking at either a 2080ti or a Quadro RTX 4000/5000. The 2080ti seems to fall somewhere in between the rtx 4000/5000, but is the extra £800 for the rtx 5000 worth it over the 2080ti? Will the 2080ti perform well in these applications?

RTX 5000 woth 800 pounds more than 2080ti? Solidworks, yes because they stuck to OpenGL for almost everything. Blender, not so much.

If you are working with CAD Software like Solidworks, Quadro is the choice to go
