Dan.
As i’m vision impaired its difficult to tell.
Only bout 38 traks. Not huge…But if your using heavy cpu plug ins, makes a diff.
As i said i would go on gearspace and the reaper forums and see what people have bought custom pc’s say.
Heres one active vendor of many mentioned on recording forums.

And another …..but there are many others….all normally have lots of customer references on their net sites.

Best advice i can give you if you go the custom pc route is to clearly define your needs on paper regarding max trak and plug in counts, as well as the plug ins you want to use , and the sound device you use as well as other items of importance to you….and then share it with the builder so all is clear and unambiguous. Eg if you want the fastest boot rocket ship time…lol..tell them also. Make sure you get a good long warranty also.
Its sorta like when i used to spec out tech with end users, …identify needs, send spec to vendors and get back pricing etc etc. then shortlist and get user references etc etc.

Best

ps there are lots of pc daw builds on you tube and the reaper and gearspace forums as well google such.
