Music Production PC Build Help.
what I need I just need some input of the compatibility and how well you guys think this build will run what I want it to run. Also any input on parts that can achieve the same thing but are cheaper is also appreciated <3
My intention my intention for this build is music production, most likely ableton live or FL 12. Also a bit of gaming on the side and also possibly streaming. However 90% of the use will be music production with a lot of tracks and effects.
Graphics requirments Im going for anything between high-max graphics settings with anything 120+ frames, but since I wont be gaming too much it is not the biggest issue. I will be playing mainly single player games and the occasional hearthstone game or maplestory nostalgia run.
Budget nothing more than 2.5k AUD
Country Australia
This is the potential build

MotherBoard ASUS PRIME X299-A LGA2066 $439
Memory Corsair - Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3000 Memory $219
Graphics Card MSI - GeForce GTX 1070 8GB Video Card $649
Cpu cooler Noctua NH-U12S Ultra-Quiet Slim CPU Cooler with NF-F12 fan $90
PSU be quiet! Straight Power 10 600W CM Power Supply $149

As you can see the PC being quiet is almost as important as performance when making music since I will be recording vocals most likely.
(btw thanks in advance and if you are curious I'll be making trance music, mainly uplifting and vocal trance but definitely a little bit of trippy psy trance)
