Hey fellow music lovers,
I am ready to buy/build a new computer, a new rig, ect: Currently I use a MacBook Pro 13", Duo Core i5 with 8gb of ram, weak I know... system overloads have been a close friend. I use Logic Pro X & Cubase, and route all audio through my Apollo MKII Quad. I use two Focal Alpha 5's for my monitors.
I was going to just get an iMac pro, but w.t.h are these prices? So, I decided I would buy a PC through Splick.Audio but, after a lot more education I am sort of stumped. Why not just build the PC myself? It would save a lot more money, yes? I can also get specific parts. I'm not stupid, but also have a tendency to overthink. It doesn't seem that difficult, but maybe it would be smarter just to purchase a prebuilt rig and focus solely on the craft?
I have built a PC through pcpartpicker.com, and would love to get some feedback if possible. I could only find one motherboard that has prebuilt Thunderbolt 3; going to need an adapter since the Apollo is Thunderbolt 2. Also, feedback on just the whole situation in general would be so appreciated.

I use Spitfire Samples, Xfer VST's, UAD Plugins.
Look-forward to all advice!
