I can't take this piecashit PC much longer...I'm gonna have to fork out for a new machine.... But to be honest Ive always bought "off the shelf" jobs rather than a dedicated production machine. Can anyone suggest what hardware I should be looking for in the way of hard drive, processor, soundcard etc?? Moneys tight so I don't want to know about all the amazing hardware that costs a shit load but something that offers a good money to performance ratio.

Thanks :)
