money = no object = go buy an alienware com = does those things = u dont need to build it since money is no object = more time for u to produce ur music.

Yeah you could check out www.alienware.com they are expensive but thats what you're paying for their name and warrenty. However, by building your own computer you know everything that is in it, and each part you purchase has a warrenty. You save money and get more bang for you buck knowing you purchased quality parts for your needs. http://www.newegg.com is the place to shop for your computing needs usually have free shipping too.

Here are some sites that ill give you a rundown of what you will need to do to build a computer.

You're kidding right? While the Alienware systems are certainly superb ... if money's no object you're better of building your own as I dont think you can customize a RAID3 SCSI setup with them (or any other OEM for that matter)

Rezon:
I can spec out a system for your needs ... but what exactly is the budget. If money isnt an issue, have a start at the spec i gave here: Building high end gaming computer, help!

Killer yes. bragging no. Try this setup for size:

- AthlonFX53-2.4Ghz
- ASUS KT800 Pro
- 2 x Corsair TwinX Platinum 2GB Kit
- Prometeia Vapor Cooler Mach II Vapor cooler
- ASUS V9999 and OC the piss out of that
- Plextor PX-712A
- Multiple 15K SCSI-320 drives running RAID3 with 128MB cache (all in HDD racks)
- SoundBlaster Audigy2 ZS Plat Pro
- A shitload of Vantec Tornados and a Ventec Nexus
- Matrix Orbital (those thingys are kewl!)

Of course you could wait a bit and get SLI

ok im a noob when it comes to all this so can some one put this in english lol sorry i just hope u guys can help/handel/put up with a super computer noob

That question needs to be answered before a meaningful answer can be given
