Help with building

Hi all,

 

Currently I am look at building a new computer for around $700 AUD

I have specific requirements that must be met.

 

REQUIREMENTS:

·         Have support for a dual monitor setup

·         Ability to be upgraded in the future

·         Can run CAD/CAM software

·         Must be able to play most games at a reasonable frame rate (60-90FPS)

·         Doesn’t not need to include peripherals

·         Must have at least 3-4 pci slots

 

 

It is something that is needed urgently as his birthday is in 4 weeks.

for $520 US i really don't think you can get 60-90fps unless you play on the lowest graphics settings but you can do CAD as long as the drawings dont get too big. 3-4 pci slots will be hard but it is possible, dual monitor setup is basically almost always there, no worries on that. and yes it will be upgradable. if you can squeeze out around 200-300 more aud, you can get a pc which will meet all your requirements but for $520 us you cant get it to meet all of that
