Hi, guys, I would like to build a work station for my design work purpose. Will not use it for gaming or movie watching.
I have a budget of $2000, which is not includes monitor and speaker.
Softwares that will be using all the time are:

1) Adobe Illustrator
2) Adobe Photoshop
3) 3D Studio Max
4) Autodesk AutoCad
5) Sweet Home 3D

Will invest more on the processor will help to improve the rendering time of the software?
I plan to invest on a SSD for OS and software installed, and a 2TB HDD for storage purpose.

For graphic choice, do I need to go for those work station type graphic card? Or shall I just go for normal gaming graphic card?
The system choice is only dedicated for design work purpose and any parts that can improve the rendering time will be always set as priority.

Hope all the expert here can help me to come out a build which won't exceed $2000.
Your help and advice is greatly appreciated.
