Hello,

I have already asked a similar question at http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2803970/budget-music-production.html. But now I want to make a few changes to the question. I will post the whole question here so you don't have to visit the link above. Here it is: what pc build would you recommend for music production mainly. I don't do a whole lot of gaming but I also do light video and photo editing regularly. I use Ableton Live 9 for music, CyberLink Powerdirector 13 for video and Adobe Photoshop Elements for photo if that helps. I would like it to be under $1000 AUD including accessories. I have already picked them and they are:

AOC E2260SWDN Monitor - $149 AUD

Logitech MK200 Mouse and Keyboard Combo - $15 AUD

However, if you have better recommendations for accessories please let me know as long as ot stays within the budget. Windows is also part of the cost. I am getting Windows 8.1 and maybe upgrading to 10.

Windows 8.1 - $129 AUD
