Raistlin666 Posted August 22, 2009 CID Share Posted August 22, 2009 A co-worker is trying to get a computer so he can supposedly try and make and edit music I think... For a Budget around 400 to 500, what would you recommend Motherboard and cpu wise. He has some of the essentials already, like a monitor and case, and moderately not crappy power supply. I was hoping to get some ideas so we can build from something stable. Thanks in advance, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudmanc4 Posted August 22, 2009 CID Share Posted August 22, 2009 If your doing budget, you might just use a case that you can find laying around, if your into makin music, then who cares about a fancy case that does nothng ! Maybe there's a used shop nearby and you can pick up a shell there. Far as I know, and please correct me, but you'll need a decent sound card with midi support, remember newegg isn't the only place to get this >>>>>>> http://www.newegg.com/Store/Category.aspx?Category=36&name=Sound-Cards-MIDI-Devices Here are several motherboard /CPU combo deals to choose from http://www.newegg.com/Store/ComboDeals.aspx?ComboStoreID=1&name=CPUs-Motherboards Then again, you could get one of there full kits, and add the sound card !!!!! http://promotions.newegg.com/AMD/Bundle3_2/index.html?cm_sp=Cat_CPUs-Processors-_-AMDBundle32-_-http%3a%2f%2fpromotions.newegg.com%2fAMD%2fBundle3_2%2f156x340.jpg Maybe none of this is much help, because I'm not real certain just what exactly you will need as far as the system specs, I'm sure someone else will chime in on this that knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
