Hello,
My current computer, a Toshiba Satellite, is getting older and having a difficult time running my CAD software and is getting rather slow. Because of this, I am looking for a new computer to buy that is under $1000. I need at least 3 USB ports and decent to high end graphics capabilities for running 3D CAD programs, primarily Autodesk Fusion for the time being. I am a novice in computer hardware and do not know what specific requirements the computer will need to quickly run CAD software. After some research, I am considering either an i7 or Xeon CPU, and a Radeon, Quadro, or FirePro GPU, but I'm open to other suggestions. I will need at least 500GB of hard drive space, and would prefer an SDD over HDD, but HDD is not a deal breaker. Any help is much appreciated
