I need a new work station to do work with AutoDesk Revit software. Been looking at this: https://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-ThinkStation-Workstation-i7-14700-Processor/dp/B0DTMLH9B7/ref=sr_1_6?crid=30D5NADW0K7OY&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.1HWJxbH3CBeJ197wW5eyHsq8bMg42PsKttIW71kB3gFGEtsCTqO_nAnFU1qfpNYSJXpivGrRwkcfsM-a_hjkv39r10CmO52O_Th_0VtHL4ij_mXGGNPHroowsFcZz75G_mM5SShiXL0WFfFRlyjy50SWUsGs0MTgXuVX-ri1SF_prKm-FnG_ExfInSVQ-QsH1-0lrnHBdCNRrR3ddbdUF3XGi6wVWvQnxo6dTx5gmbA.UmeWpZSR67DheAmcuQYZWApDT7K3BdDfcISEIM60LxI&dib_tag=se&keywords=thinkstation+p3&qid=1752264757&sprefix=thinkstation+%2Caps%2C121&sr=8-6


Can I build this for cheaper?

Thanks guys

Now I didn't include a vPro processor here.
