Advise for a Designing build

[MajorZ]

hello all,

 

so i am working on building 2 PCs for designing for my Stationery Shop's use, budget is USD1,300 for each PC.

 

i have done my gaming build before, but now the build is for designing so here i am confused about which motherboard and which GPU should i go for ??

let me detail the activities that is running on the current PCs, both is currently used to the max level and kept open for long hours, so the current PCs stuck because of that, so i decided to get a new pc with a better performance, even if it the performance was over what i need that wont be a problem, because maybe in the future i will use more heavy softwares.

 

what exactly i need is to get advised about a good GPU and Motherboard that support what i need.

 

@qwertywarrior

for storage 2 hard drive will be enough

size of PC woulding matter i got alot of space in the shop.

Must the budget cover Windows? Monitor? Mouse? Keyboard? Stylus & tablet?

 

Is noise an issue?

 

How much storage do the machines actually need, 100GB, 250GB, 1TB, 4TB, more?

 

Can US pricing be used to establish cost?

Plan your build as a whole and not part by part.
