Build spec for solidworks

[fobose]

Hi all,

I have a friend who wants a PC for solidworks. From what he has said he needs to run flow simulations and stress calculations.

Google seems to point in favour for Intel for solidworks. He already has a case, brand new PSU and a RTX Quadro 4000.

I've not built a PC for about 6 years so I am well out the loop. Can anyone advise on the below if its a good pick / any known compatibility issues or recommend anything else?

INTEL CORE I5-11600K 3.90GHZ (ROCKET LAKE) SOCKET LGA1200 PROCESSOR - RETAIL
MSI MAG B560 TORPEDO (SOCKET LGA 1200) DDR4 ATX MOTHERBOARD
VULCAN Z T-FORCE 32GB (2X16GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHZ DUAL CHANNEL KIT - GREY (2 sets of these)

edit - oh and he said he has a CPU cooler already!
