3. Do you need a copy of Windows? Yes

4. Can you use any parts from an old computer? No

5. Do you need a monitor? Yes

5a. If yes, what size do you need. 22/24"

6. Do you need any of these peripherals? Need Keyboard, Mouse, Wireless Card, Card Reader, Speakers

7. Are you willing to try overclocking? No

If you could get more info on the type of cad work that would be helpful. If it is 2d draughting (house plans, designs etc.) then it shouldnt be too resource heavy. 3d will have higher requirements, or manipulating 2d drawings with large background mapping, contour sets etc.

So it all depends on what they are doing
