Hey everyone, Im new here and am looking to buy a High end computer. I can spend about 3 grand if I want to and am looking for any suggestions. I am interested in gaming, video editing etc. I also need a good performance for recording programs "for guitars and drums and such". I also like to use synth programs which take up alot of cpu. Im basiclly looking for the best setup i could get so if anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it. I am willing to buy a premade computer or build one myself even though I never have and it sounds a little scary. I want to save money too and thats why im here. I setup a computer on the hp website that came to around 3 grand and I think I could do better. here is the setup i made on hp though.
