<div style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Looks like your setup has plenty grunt enough to me.<br>
<br>
I also have mine setup for quiet. My spinner hard drives only spin up when used. They are in quiet mount chassis holders. And the PC is built in a Carillion DAW case, which is heavy steel, and that is in a Pro Tools rig flight case (I have small cable glands
for any cabling).<br>
<br>
Also use passive cooled class D amplifiers for PMC monitors.<br>
<br>
And run a cheap 1GB 6450 passive cooled gfx card. Lets me connect a couple of Asus 24" displays via HDMI and DVI, no fan noise.<br>
<br>
Quiet is good!<br>

<br>
My gaming rig (I don't really do DAW) is showing its age:<br>
<br>
Intel Core i7 960, stock 3.2 GHz<br>
Supermicro C7X58 motherboard<br>
6 GB RAM (no idea what brand)<br>
Samsung SSD 830 256 GB<br>
Western Digital low-power 2 GB HD<br>
Nvidia GTX 580 graphics card (forgot the brand)<br>
Windows 8.1 Professional<br>
<br>
The system has been designed to be as quiet as possible, but with a GTX 580 on board, there's only so much you can do.<br>
<br>
My 2015 project, funds permitting, will be to build a small gaming PC to connect to the TV. I can find no justification to upgrade my current system.<br>
