Rig for Engeniering and Gaming

Budget (including currency): 20,000-25,000MXN

Country: México

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: SolidWorks, AutoCAD and anything that engineers use

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

Hi! So, I'm planning this build for my brother that's about to start school, and since he's in need of running SolidWorks, and we both are heavy mac users, we saw this as a great opportunity to build a proper machine, both for his school and occasional entertainment. As stated, our budget is in the neighborhood of 1000~1250USD. I already built a parts list using "Mexican Newegg" called Cyberpuerta. I am looking for a second opinion on the selection, mainly compatibility, because the machine falls right into the budget.

I’d get 3200-3600mhz ram, 80+ gold psu, and the ryzen 7 5700x if you can. 
 

You might be able to squeeze in a better boot drive if you try hard enough.

 

Could you send a link to the case in here so I can get a better look at it?

It looks like it would work just fine. I would recommend a case with a mesh front for airflow though.

 

Check out pcpartpicker.com, you can switch the location to Mexico also.
