Gamer PC's Can be used for Audio

[mapper724]

Okay when you think about it. Gaming PC's Can be used for Audio production for a few different reasons.
1) PC Gamers love extreme power
2) Gaming PC's are optimized for performance
3) Lots of RAM = Lots of Tracks
4) Faster Processor = Lower Latency
5) With very minor tweaks you can turn a Gaming Computer into an Audio workhorse.
5a) Creating a second user account on your OS dedicated to Audio so no other programs become distractions
5b) Stopping unnecessary Start-up programs for that specific User Account helps quite a bit.
5c) Keeping External hard drives for your projects, Audio Files, Samples, ETC.

None of this is including the external Hardware you may use. But it's just an idea to think about.

As long as it's not noisy...

Definitely, make sure it is a quiet computer or move it to your closet or another room with extension cables.

Is noise still a huge issue for you guys? I've got fans going all the time and you won't hear them in my recordings.

Its not necessarily just noise for recording, that'd be easier to edit out. Its more important during the mix phase when mixing at ow volumes. The noise can interfere with frequencies and mask problems.
