Hi all,

My 4.5 years old PC kinda died on me,
and it was a limiting DAW back when it worked perfectly so I decided to upgrade my system.
I'm a musician and use the PC as a DAW - for recording, producing etc.

I'm pretty low on funds, so I figured I can stick with my
1. old case
2. PSU(520W)
3. Graphics card(Nvidia 9500GT) [or use intel graphics that will come with the new CPU]
4. Hard Drives
5. Burner, Screens, Keyboard etc...

and just buy a new MotherBoard, CPU, and RAM.
What would you suggest to get for a budget of about 350$-400$ ?
 
Unresolved crackling noise during videos/music playback and during editing music and recording.

I've tested the ram bios hard drives temperatures soundcards and what not...
couldn't find the source... all tests came back fine.

it still works, but I can't get rid of that noise.
 
Here is my current system:(and yes my drivers are up to date)
