My mom works with AutoCAD and I think this build will deff do good because she loves working on the laptop I bought and that one has;
Intel Core i7 2630 QM 2,0 - 2,9 GHz
GT 555M
6 GB Ram
750 GB 7200 RPM
But yeah she makes this kind of stuff so I guess it doesnt really need a 5000$ PC

I really like the case and I haven't found any in it's class that looks better.. Also haven't heard any problems with it?
Do you have expierence with it?

No, I haven't any personal experience with it.
I was going to buy it myself for my own build a few months ago, but people on another forum that I'm on thats mainly about PC Building advised me against NZXT because they cheap out on the materials. I'm sure its not that bad though, it really does look great so if you can't find anything else you like I'd say go for it.
What site are you using to buy those? Everything looks pretty cheap.

I currently have a phantom and the only real problem I have with it are the rubber feet that are on the bottom. Aside from that its a solid case that is also watercooling ready. Saying its made with cheap materials, I'm not so sure about that. I don't know how much different you can make a steel case aside from the plastic front and the top. Now that I think about it the top is a little cheap but I don't stack things on top of it

I don't have it myself, and have never even seen one in real life.
All my information comes from people I know and other PC building forums.
It does look awesome, and it was a case I considered getting until I was advised otherwise by some people.
I wouldn't worry about it, I wouldn't think its anywhere near bad enough to make anyone consider buying a new case.
