I'm looking to upgrade my PC setup because the one I'm using isn't cutting it for my work with Autodesk Inventor 2025. The configuration I'm considering is:
- Deepcool DQ1000M-V3L 1000W Power Supply
- ASUS TUF GAMING X870-PLUS WIFI 7 AMD5 Motherboard
- AMD RYZEN 9 9950X3D Processor
- NZXT Kraken Plus 360 v2 Water Cooler
- Corsair MP700 Pro 1TB SSD (Read 11700MB/s, Write 9600MB/s)
- Corsair Vengeance RGB RAM (2x32GB - 5600MHz - CL40)
- NVIDIA Quadro RTX 2000 ADA Generation (16GB GDDR6, PCIe 4.0 x8)
Do you think this setup will run smoothly for my needs?

Just curious, what GPU are you using now? If you're dealing with huge assemblies—like 7,000 to 15,000 parts—that can definitely slow things down. But honestly, I had a pretty good experience working with large assemblies years ago on older hardware, so I'm interested to see how everything has evolved!
Hey! It sounds like you're really investing in a solid build here. Just a heads up, have you thought about sharing your budget? It could help in figuring out if this is the best bang for your buck. Also, for what it's worth, many users say that a standard GeForce card like the 5060 Ti might give you better performance without breaking the bank since Inventor isn't too picky about GPUs.
I'm on a tighter budget here in Brazil, but this config is my max right now. I just need to upgrade from my A2000.
I've got a 4070 Ti with a similar motherboard, and it runs Inventor 2026 smoothly. In my experience, desktop cards generally outperform workstation GPUs for this type of software. You might find that your upgrade to Ryzen 9 will really help since I noticed a big performance bump just by switching processors.
Yeah, my bottleneck seems to be the i9. I'm hoping this change will eliminate the crashes and slowdowns I've been experiencing.
Right now, I have the same motherboard but with a DDR4 setup and an i9 13900k. The slowness, crashes, and unexpected project closures are what I'm aiming to fix.
