I've built about 15 PC's in the last few years, mostly for friends. Some of them were for running ACAD, Solidworks...Rhino, etc....with the emphasis on graphics.
I used to get all my stuff from TigerDirect and then I got a phone call from a salesperson at their parent company GlobalPC...so I get corporate pricing now......
So I'm thinking of making a U3 or U4 rack mount PC just for music.
With a budget of no more than $800 for "the box"....where should I spend the money?
16 GB of RAM? or a SSD HD.....any suggestions for a reasonably priced sound card?
At a later date I want to get a 19" touch screen as they're coming down in price....
Thanks in advance,
Sean
