believe me i have built many music proudction pc's. Check the soundcard is definately ASIO v2.0 or no matter how good the rest of your system is, it will be shite. Glad to see you took my recommendation on the faster maindrive (c and to be honest rather than spend on a RAID array id invest in a second monitor. Much better having 2 side by side on extended desktop when you have your tracks laid out!! I sometimes run it like this when im mastering compsitions, but i tend to use the 2nd monitor for all my vsts so i can tweak them real time.
i'm wondering can you play games on a 50" full HD TV?...and connecting it with a HDMI cable...from GPU to TV
If you use a DVI to HDMI adapter to your graphis card, then yes. You could probaly also do it with VGA as well I suppose.
i'm looking for another sound card but new egg doesn't say what version of ASIO it is. Can some one help me look for the right one ? I have a pair of rokit krk5 and i'm rolling with a Axiom 49, Oxygen 49, and a Trigger Finger. i had this in mind http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829121120

An all round excellent build. Obviously you don't need a cutting edge graphics card, is there any reason to have the XXX version? If the others are no cheaper then fair enoufh, but in my experience, getting the overclocked versions of graphics cards never seemed worth it, especially not when you can just overclock them yourself anyway.
what a long list of components...when i was younger...i was thinking of studying in europe...and make big bucks there...*sigh* never gonna happen...
To be honest, most people fail on the "make big bucks" part... The only way I've got the stuff I own is by not spending money, not by earning it.
