■60,000 Optimized Workstation Build (Revit, OpenRoads,

SketchUp, 3ds Max)


This PDF lists a balanced, buy-ready workstation configuration optimized for BIM, CAD and 3D workflows within a strict
budget of ■60,000 (tower-only). It prioritizes reliability, RAM capacity, and a reasonable GPU for viewport responsiveness
and GPU-accelerated rendering where possible.

Why these choices? The CPU (Ryzen 5 5600G) offers strong single-threaded performance for modeling and includes an
integrated GPU to fall back to if a discrete GPU is delayed. 32GB RAM is prioritized to handle large BIM/3D files. The GTX
1660 Super gives good viewport and CUDA support for common renderers; the NVMe SSD keeps OS and active projects
fast while the 2TB HDD stores archives and renders.

Upgrade path: Future GPU upgrade to RTX 4060/4070 or a higher-tier RTX will notably improve GPU renders and
viewport performance. You can also upgrade CPU to Ryzen 7 later.

Storage strategy: Install Windows and software on the NVMe SSD. Keep active projects on the SSD for best
performance; move old projects, texture libraries and rendered outputs to the HDD.

Compatibility: The recommended B550 motherboard supports the CPU and NVMe SSD. Ensure BIOS is updated when
installing the Ryzen CPU.

Peripherals: This build is tower-only. Budget for a 1080p 144Hz monitor, mechanical keyboard, and a precise gaming
mouse if you need them (adds ~■12k–20k).
