PC build - what do i need?
Discussion
i would like to build a compact CAD station for home use. i will be running autodesk inventor 2011 and do not need top end visuals but would like a smooth interface and the ability to work with large assemblies with minimal loss of performance.
i have never built a pc before. i can't imagine it being that difficult but this means i have no idea what components i need. any builders here care to give me a basic list of everything required?
also i could use a recommendation for a compact case, i dont want or need a tower. i run a mac mini as my main computer using a 46" LED tv as a monitor in the living room. i'll be using the same display so it helps if the case doesn't look too out of place on the tv stand.
also, i have a 3D connexion space pilot which i would like to use but it is wired. i want a wireless keyboard and mouse so how would i go about making this wireless as well?
lastly, how much should i expect to pay for all this?
cheers.
