I would love to be in the $1500 range but that does not seem very possible for my purposes. You can read the description and look at the build here. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/B8p47P Thanks for your time

P.S I'm only 15 and my main source of income will be working over the summer. I already have $400 set aside for it.

Hello and welcome to the forums :D Please remember to follow your own threads.

What will the build be used for? Also there's a period at the end of the link breaking it.

Around $2000

Would be nice if I could go less but it hard to decline some of the things. But if something is unessescary plz point it out like if a motherboard doesn't give any real advantage over a cheaper one.

That's a good budget. Just checking, you won't overclock, will you?

I may but I won't be that dedicated to it. I hope to stay away from it. But I will probably need to render videos as well as CAD and 2 motitors.

You're 15...no offence but you'll be doing CAD and you need 2 monitors???
