Built by experts, for experts
What sets a CAD Masters workstation apart
Every machine is configured, built, and tested by the same team that teaches and uses these tools — so it's ready for real work the day it arrives.
Graphics card
This build uses a GeForce card, which has no Autodesk-certified drivers. Certified professional cards are available when you customize it.
Built & stress-tested in-house
Every machine is assembled by our team and put through CPU throttling tests, memory testing, and full QA before it ships.
CAD software pre-installed
We install and verify your Autodesk (and other CAD) software so the machine runs the work you do, out of the box.
Warranty & local support
3-year parts & labor warranty included free, backed by our Bay Area team by phone or email — before and after purchase.
Pre & post-purchase support
Real guidance choosing the right specs, plus help with setup and any issue after it arrives.
Configured by Autodesk-certified staff
Specs chosen by the same certified instructors who teach and use these tools daily.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a good workstation for CAD and BIM?
A strong CAD/BIM workstation pairs a high-clock-speed CPU, 32–64 GB of RAM, a professional GPU (such as an NVIDIA RTX series card), and a fast NVMe SSD. CAD Masters builds every workstation configured specifically for AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and Revit performance.
Are CAD Masters workstations certified for Autodesk software?
Yes. We configure workstations around Autodesk-certified components and hardware tuned for CAD, BIM, and rendering workloads, so they run AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and Revit reliably out of the box.
Can I customize a workstation build?
Yes. Use our online workstation builder to configure the CPU, memory, graphics card, storage, and other components, with real-time pricing. You can also contact our hardware team for custom or bulk builds.
Do CAD Masters workstations come with a warranty and support?
Yes. Every workstation includes a three-year parts and labor warranty at no extra cost, and is backed by real support from the CAD Masters hardware team, who build and stand behind each system.
