Real soon I will be in the market for a new music computer. My friend whom used to own a computer store sold out and moved so I will have to look at other sources. My main problems are I'm on a fixed income, chip shortages, and raising inflation. Not to mention the things around the house that need repair.

I will go PCIe 4 also. I need a desktop as I need a number of USB cards installed; I have a number of MIDI controllers and other USB peripherals. My music computers have always been the most expensive computers in our house. At my age this may be the last computer I buy so I am going to try to go big, like I did 11 years ago.


Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.
It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
