I was using sonar 8.5 on my home PC. It's the only PC that i have and
it's not "purposed-build daw"
You're right though. one needs to pack up some good hardware for
serious audio engineering.
choice 1: do whatever you said in your post, either talk to a
specialist, or try to search and grab the right hardware for your work,
which takes some time.
choice 2: buy mac, one that is powerful enough to hold your needs.

Apple fanboys always recommend you to get a mac, no matter what the
situation is!
