Hello,

Have you considered renting cloud workstations? You can access from your browser to powerful workstations and upgrade / downgrade the machine depending on your needs. Here are a few service providers:

All of those are great builds and will run your workloads well. Thing is, the new AMD CPU gen is right around the corner (1 week away) so you could wait a few more days and get the newest CPU gen with higher single and multi-core performance.

Right now I'd probably recommend the 12900K, as it is the fastest for ketchup and revit, but does draw a lot of power.

As for the GPU, although the 3090 is great, again, it, too draws a crazy amount of power. The 3070 would be fast enough for your viewport workloads, although enscape does make great use of a higher amount of CUDA cores and VRAM. If power draw is of no concern to you, the 12900k + 3090 combo is my recommendation, otherwise go with AMD 7xxx gen CPU that will release in a couple of days and maybe even get an nvidia 40xx GPU that, too will release shortly, where you'll hopefully get 3090 performance at 3070 power draw.
