Best gpu for CAD for i7 3770?

[jonciki]

Hi guys so i want to get a good gpu for my i7 3770 which will be used mainly for CAD and 3D Modeling apps for ex:f360,autocad,blender.I have a 600w psu and in my region with my budget i can get these GPUs:
Gtx 1080,rx 5700,rtx 2060,quadro tesla p4,quadro 6000,amd radeon pro wx 5100, quadro p2000.They are all at the same price range and j wonder wich one will suit the best.Thanks in advance and peace

Probably the 1080 or 2060. Would be worth checking benchmarks for both cards, but that 3770 is going to hold you back a bit.

 

[jonciki]

I also found an amd radeon pro wx 7100.What do u think?

 

[droopyRO]

I had a 980Ti on a 3770K but with a an overclock to 4300Mhz. So i would go for a RX580/GTX1060 up to a GTX1070.

Out of what you listed the RTX 2060 is the one you want if it's a reasonable price. Or the GTX 1080 if it's much cheaper.

As a fellow CAD guy myself, I can tell you without hesitation to get the biggest, baddest, fastest GPU with as much VRAM & system ram as you can afford...

And as Toothless already stated, your current CPU will be a limiting factor, regardless of what GPU you get....but you can always deal with that later on...

My team recently upgraded from RTX A4000's to the A6000 cards, and the Threadripper PRO 7000 WX CPU's & 1TB of DDR5 ram, and it is a modeler's dream for sure...

However, those machines were paid for with the company's money, not mine or yours, so obviously you would probably need to go back down the ladder a bit, but my statement above still applies

Ho ho ho be cautious to not get pulled over for such a fast machine .I also found an amd radeon pro wx 7100 and think will go with it since it has 8GB of VRAM and bcs I'm still at the beginning it will do the job good for f360 and some blender,but yea thanks for the suggestion and peace

Don't do that. AMD's older workstation GPUs are not very good, it's really situational. The WX 7100 is an RX 480. What's your budget?

130 euros and that's what i cant get with this money in my country.I also saw the quadro p2000 and the gtx 1080 and rtx 2060

Go 1080 and you need to upgrade the rest of your stuff. Even x99 would be a huge bump considering the core counts skyrocket to 22 cores on one Xeon.

Xeon v3's have gotten dirt cheap! Not so much for the high core count v4's though. The 20 and 22 core models have gotten pricier lately.

Yep, the RTX 2060 is probably the best card on that budget. The GTX 1080 would be the fastest, but I don't recommend buying Pascal anymore. Driver support is about to get axed any day now.

Thing is that if OP could land a Titan he'd be set. Even with driver support possibilities it's a strong card for the age.

V3 is still Haswell but tons of cores to be had nonetheless.

Problem with Titan is, depending which model you are referring to, some of them love to burn up their VRM.

I'm running the big Titan Xp and never had hot memory modules. ITX, open bench, different cases, multi-GPU. Never had issues.

 

[ir_cow]

NVIDIA Quadro or AMD Fire cards for CAD. Gaming GPUs don't have acceleration for CAD applications. Locked away in the drivers.

Not VRAM. VRM. There are two phases that love to burn up in the Titan X and Black.

Kind of pretty general requirements from OP, but I'd say if you are looking at the "pro" side, best bang for the buck, a used RTX4000 or Radeon Pro W5700 (equals RX5700). Both are kind of similar and depending where you live you should be able to get them at around €200-250 (at most). Plenty of horse power for "average", "starting" in the field. Also a lot of miner's RTX A2000 lately has crept up on the surface. You didn't list neither of these cards where you live, but please look around specifically for these models.

On the "commercial side" money spent on the RTX4000, you should be able to get a used RTX3070TI/ RTX3080.

Get the thing that has the most memory.

Ye they are all out of my budget,i will go with the p2000 since im a begginer and won't do much stuff, also won't be for a very long term until i learn all the basics in f360 and blender wich i estimate will be around 1-2 years,after that imma switch to something more stronger but this build is just for learning and I don't think i need a fricking rtx 2000 for allat and i refuse to get gtx 1080 or rtx 2060 cuz of the tempation to play games instead doing something that will make me bread in the future,thanks anyways and i hope for u much peace and happiness.And u said i didn't put all the models,i put all the models oh and the vega rx64 but don't think is a good option so i also got the advice from Chat Gpt since there aren't very much forums talking abt this and made the decision to get the p2000.My budget is 130e and with this money u can get either rx 5700, Radeon pro wx7100,quadro 6000,p2000,nvidia tesla 4,m 4000 and the vega rx64 and i think that's all,if i find more stuff i will say but untill then that's all the options avaible for me.To make ur life easier and to say the region so u can know it is Romania and i use OLX because there isn't any sh place,my budget also being 130e≈650RON

Also did found a quadro p2200 i will still document abt all this but thanks for ur opinion

I think GTX 1080 is good enough -- https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/10-series/century-techgpu
