Give us a budget and a location and we can all pitch in. Ps, I am using that Firpro card as a coaster right now

No GFX card?

[fifthheaven873]

my budget is around 1800$

 

Also, I was wondering if I can run 1 gaming and 1 workstation card on my PC?

my current one wont let me run my v7900 and my 660oc at the same time:*(

I don't think you can go wrong with the x99 platform especially with the 5820k. The case is excellent, my friend has it, but it all comes down to whether you like it or not. The PSU is good but you should probably go with a better rated power supply, maybe gold or even platinum. Ram is good if you don't plan on doing heavy video editing or such with it. And last but not least, the Firepro v7900 is a blast cheers

I was wondering if you really need over 16GB of ram to work in Solidwork? whats the difference between bronze, silver, gold psu? Ive it makes some difference, but how much?

My dad is an engineer, he recommends 32GB. I personally have never used it but I trust my father.

U need a ssd in there otherwise all the horse power is wasted

So grab yourself Samsung 850 pro (they coming out soon) or intel.

Get a 1000+ watt PSU, gives you more upgrade "potential" in-case you want to slap in another GFX card and all that. 

 

Also get the biggest case you can; if size is not an issue; the bigger the case = the better

[fifthheaven873]

I believe CM striker is a full tower case? yes? are there any bigger case out there?

thanks for 1000w psu, ill look into it:)
