PC building is like expensive lego! It's when something goes wrong that it gets difficult -q-

Also - mmm SSD & 8GB Ram!

Looks a wicked machine mate!

8 gb of ram is a lil overkill, but other than that looks like a solid build, i'd just have a dedicated raid card in there and have built into a rackmount case
hope you remembered the thermal paste

That's just about what I want to have sometime this year once I've saved up the pennies. Think I'm gonna go for an AMD processor though, cos intel is baaaaare expensive.

Yeah 4 gigs is still enough for daws imo (6 if you're running triple channel).
Maybe 64 bit you would break 4 tho
