this is quite a bit better than my 1.8 GHz 512 mb sdram computer. i'll be using it for recording vocals and later on music production, looking to either get sonar or protools m-powered
so i was wondering if this was a decent build. i need a new pc either way because i'm in college and majoring in computer science. i was going to buy some rokit 6 monitors later on
