I am new to internet broadcasting and I am looking to build a secondary computer that is just there to use when easy tasks need to be done. Maybe an i3 or 15, what are your thoughts on building a computer or buying one for this task? Also any computers that you think I should check out.

Hello Sunkast
I think for the new PC will be audio only I have an i7 for video buy it would be very nice to dedicate the PC to the audio and Skype. I would rather buy one but build one if I can get a good deal on it. Thanks for getting back.
Any i5 computer should be able to handle any audio processing.
you can even go with a quad core AMD. I saw them going for 300 bucks the other day.
Thanks James and Sunkast for the feedback, I will most likely get a cheaper AMD machine as I wont be doing much with the machine.
If there is a microcenter around where you are check it out. They have referbs that are pretty good
Be advised that if you go with a laptop then you might encounter some issues with HDMI out. Many laptop video cards disable HDMI with capture cards
