Hi Andrew2489 and welcome to PC Mech. It seems this is a great community and an invaluable source of interesting and trustworthy information.

First thing: are you in the US or the UK...1000 means two rather different things depending on where you are

The other thing to keep in mind is that building a computer yourself may not mean it is cheaper than something you can buy pre-built but it is certainly the way to go if you are looking at a high spec machine with potential for future upgrades

ALSO: What software are you using for 3D Design work?

A good place to look for components would be at www.newegg.com it seems to be the retailer of choice for most people using this site!

I am from the UK so your currency is a little alien to me
