Unless there's something about engineering work that makes clock matter more than cores, there is no way I would buy something with an Intel chip, especially if I have to go last gen. I feel like a 3700 might be a price/performance sweet spot for this kind of work.

Yeah I'd prefer Ryzen, not sure I would go down to the Ryzen 7 3700U versus a i7 10750h that is in a lot of last year's machine in this class.

You mean like AutoCad?
AutoCad doesn't support multiple cores unless you are doing 2D Regeneration.
For AutoCad, clock speed is king.
