[LAU] Christmas present for self.

I'm thinking of getting a new 'pooter for music, and also thinking of making
it one of the new Ryzen ones. I don't think there is much point in going for
more than quad core. The 1500X looks like a good bet 3.5 to 3.7G, and not
overly expensive.

On (say) an asus motherboard with on-board radeon graphics. I'm not really
fussed about the graphics, but these seem to have better Linux support than
Nvidea ones (especially for RT kernels).

The one think I've no idea about is the sound card. I've got a positively
ancient 2496 that survived 3 PCs so far, but I think it's time for an upgrade.
Anyone any ideas about a well supported PCI-e oneĀ· It would be nice to have
balanced IO for a start!

Suggestions welcome!

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
