I am putting together a computer to be used in a Machine Shop for 3D modeling and gcode generation.  We will mainly be running MasterCam on it whose system requirements can be found here.  I do not need any peripherals, monitors, or windows.  I live in the US near a MicroCenter.  The parts with manually entered prices on the PCPartPicker list were found at my local MicroCenter with the exception for the P2000 which was found here.  My questions are: Is this the cheapest build for the specs?  Are these quality components?  Is it overkill or underpowered?  Whats the difference between this P2000 for $389.99 and this P2000 for $439.99?

 

Thank you,

Alex - W3AWP
