also a case and a cpu cooler for the phenom.

Please rip this apart, it is a very rough draft.

ps - the computer is for music production, so graphics are not important atm.
 
Meh, a e2160 @ 3GHz, and on an MSI P35 mobo would be better than the Phenom, for all but quad optimised programs. Even in those, the 2160 would still be ultra powerful. And then you have the upgrade option to go with the q6600 later.
 
Do you still need a good soundcard if you are using an audio interface?
