Well depending on your cash supplies you should look into a dual cpu
system as you can never have enough power for plugins and synths in
realtime.
If not then AMD has a better rep in Linux land than Intel.
Plenty of RAM and ATI has better performing drivers than nvidia although
that can also depend on your mobo/vga combination.
Ask here before you buy with a list of specs and you'll get plenty of
feedback.
