800 - 920$ Computer

[anko]

I'm going to be building a computer soon, I posted this a while back near November, I need help picking out the parts. I already have peripherals, I do however need an OS and a monitor. I'm planning on making this a gaming computer/CAD/revit, 

 

As in the title my price ranges are 800 - 920$ American money.

 

Latest I'll be ordering is monday.

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks in advanced.

Apparently the Nvidia 660Ti is better than the 760 because it has more Cuda cores? At least when it comes to CAD.

I remember reading that somewhere ages ago. Hopefully someone can either confirm or prove me wrong.

either way, don't go for the 750ti unless power consumption is a HUGE factor, but if you're going to use an amd cpu then that shouldn't matter and get a 2x4gb kit of ram.

This is a little over your budget. But it squeezes in a GTX 770, which is leaps and bounds over the 750ti

If you are stuck to the budget which I understand, just go for a 760, still a good card.
