Hi everyone,
I've done a search in this forum for both "Music" and "audio" and didn't find anything relevent, so pardon me if I missed something.
I'm putting together a hypothetical build for a DJ friend of mine who'll be mixing songs and doing a bunch of audio things on his computer. I've built gaming and workstation rigs, but never an audio rig, so I need a bit of help.
I know he'll need a pretty decent processor and a lot of RAM, as well as HDD space, but I don't know which sound card would be good, which processor would be decent to get, etc.
Here's the specifics:
$1000 budget
Intel or AMD, doesn't matter which
SATA motherboard (the newest type of SATA...II or III?)
Quiet PSU, fans, etc.
Any help? I'll be here to answer questions if I've been too vague.
