Nice to see a guide on building a PC for music production! It's always evolving, so this is super helpful for anyone looking to set up their studio in 2025. 🎧💪
I’m building a new pc for a recording studio this was really helpful but would you suggest getting a graphics card at all? Or just getting a cpu with integrated graphics (we might do a little bit of video editing)
Glad it was useful! If you're doing a light video editing you should be fine with the igpu, I am using a low power I5 (1ghz, 4 cores) to edit my videos, I am not using graphic elements or effects and it's a bit slow but it still works :) I'd suggest a graphic card if you're working with big files with a lot of FXs or for heavy codecs! Hope this helps, let me know if you need any clarifications :)
I'd suggest you to always use and external audio interface (even a cheap one)! Also Asus sadly has a high rate of returns, hope your system will work smoothly!
@@weeddiz5732i dont know it's because of my config in the daw or not but example, the famous ivory 3 vst need 8 core minimum and really have high latency ( use in reaper)
@@clothes4060 I was checking it, it seems that it uses a DSP engine: the Real-time Gradient Blending (RGB) engine - so I guess that it needs a modern processor to tackle it fully, and probably a fast ssd and ram, may I ask you what are the specs of your pc? Thank you again!! #reapergang
@@weeddiz5732 I use gen 4 intel (really old just enough to use ivory 2), buy a laptop i5 gen 12 (2 years agos) to use the ivory 3 but looks like sc*m by e core not working as it's should be. the ivory 3 I use mostly need 416-512 buffer size with the laptop (but still a bit of latency although I adjust the midi really close to the grid). So I think maybe I need a mid-high or high end CPU to use the 64-128 buffer size of that vst. (or maybe other plugin). so maybe I will save money to get AMD (intel still in stability issue with degrade CPU) instead of intel (I suppose to choose the 9900x but the 2 ccds(8core+4 core) really wonder me. So I want to make sure it work all the core it need to , not like just run 4 core like the laptop and 4 core 9900x suppose if it pick random ccds - I suppose if it divide the CCD
Sure man! There could be different issues so make sure to check them all: Bad cables/connectors, Old drivers for the interface or buggy driver issues with your operating system, high sample rate/buffer, or electrical interferences (if there are a lot of electronics or cables around), also check that your cpu isn't 100% utilized using the task manager! Hope this helps, please let me know! I don't know your interface or pc specs but this could be a good starting point

Excellent!
Glad you enjoyed it!!
this is everything i needed to hear🙏 very limited videos on youtube about this topic .. thank you
Thank you for watching! I agree, everything seems to be oriented only towards gaming or AI if you're searching for PC builds

Thank you for watching! Yeah this is going to be a never ending series of videos, since everything keeps going forward :) glad you enjoy it!
Great value and straight to the point! Love this
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!

What is you opinion on R9 9900X?
Usage Orchestral Music, Davinci Resolve and AI Model Training.
That's a beast of a cpu, if you pair it with a lot of RAM and a good GPU you will be safe and sound for a lot of different kind of projects!
@weeddiz5732 Definitely bro with 64Gigs and a Optimal RTX 5K series card.
@ I love it! If you remember/have time, let me know how your system will perform when it's ready!!
Is the onboard sound for this motherboard good ASUS Prime X870-P WiFi
I'd suggest you to always use and external audio interface (even a cheap one)! Also Asus sadly has a high rate of returns, hope your system will work smoothly!
I wish someone would just tell me what I should buy, and i would do that blindfolded
Please tell me your use case!
What are you thinking about Minic PC for example Geekom AX7? Use case: music composer
Would be great to her your thoughts 👍🏻
Mini PCs are actually pretty good right now! Just be careful about heat and you should be fine for producing/mixing!
actually even midi it's also need low latency if play => editting. because some vst have really high latency need to adjust low buffer size
Thank you for the info!!

What a pity, Intel has really fallen with this architecture! Yeah I would probablyy go with a 7900 or a 9700x, let me now if/when you'll upgrade!
Can you explain why some audioiterfaces create cracking noiese .. ihave a 24gb ram laptop im having this problem
