When comparing options for pre-built computers it's best to ignore the marketing literature and jump straight to the specifications list so you can directly compare options based on their performance and value, and only once you have done so look at the aesthetics of the case. Some brands have some incredibly stylish designs for their cases without much of interest inside. I also ruled out options that were significantly higher priced than competing brands which offered the same or better specifications so you can see the best value. Engineers, especially electronics engineers, tend to have a whole lot of USB devices plugged into their computers at once! I have every port on my computer full, plus 8 ports of USB hub maxed out if I’m debugging hardware. Nice to haves include a case with multiple USB 3.0 connectors as well as audio connectors on the front panel and lots of USB ports on the back. NVIDIA GTX 1660, or NVIDIA RTX 2060 or better, or Quadro equivalent for graphics cards.
At least a 9th generation Intel Core i7 or 3rd generation AMD Ryzen processor.Minimum 16GB of RAM, preferably 32GB as standard or supplier-provided upgrade.
I have researched workstations and gaming computers to bring you this short list of computers which I consider to be the best computers for CAD design and engineering work. Computers for CAD, Design, and Engineering Requirements You can also upgrade these systems to newer hardware. However, it is something you should be aware of. The performance cost is fairly minor compared to the latest generation of the same model. Many systems on this list are still utilising the previous generation. In this year’s computer build guide, we were looking at the latest generation of processors and graphics cards. For a business, the ability to simply unbox a computer, install software and start using it has a lot of merits. While building a computer for CAD yourself is going to allow you to use the latest technology and get the best value for your money - a pre-built computer from a global brand will typically offer you excellent support and a warranty. This year we have updated those articles and are also going to be looking at the best pre-built computers for CAD design, engineering, and hardware development in general. Last year I wrote about buying a laptop or components to build a desktop computer but did not cover pre-built computers.
