My budget gets me a K2200 ($600~)
Would the K2200 be better than a 970?
If it is, what real world differences will I see between the two?
For autoCAD definitely
for sketchup, no
honestly drop sketchup because if you start doing high quality you'll want to kill yourself with render time + lag duing use, it's built like shit.

I'm not 100% sure but a Quadro or maybe Titan Z would be your best bet. Also, for the price, I would recomend a 5930K and X 99 motherboard for quad channel rather than dual. Dual only gives 10^ higher performance than single amd Quad gives your roughly 30% more.
this too
