Hey everybody, this is my first time using this website. I am looking to buy a pc desktop and have been doing much research. I have found a computer I am interested in but the only thing stopping me is the fact that it is integrated sound. I would put together my own pc but it is currently not in my budget. The desktop I am thinking of getting is the ACER AX3950-UR31P link: http://www.frys.com/product/6832356?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG. I will be running programs such as PropellerHead's Reason 5/6, as well as Reaper and Fruity Loops 9/10 simultaneously. Would, this be a good desktop for my needs? I am currently running a Dell Latitude D610 and cannot smoothly run Reason 5.

I was wondering if running the integrated sound card will suffice for the programs I am trying to run, or should I just find something that doesn't have integrated sound?
