about the chip i heard that amd are the best for vst instuments and that steinberg recommends them even though im sure that intel work good as whel but also more expensive about ram get at least 512 ram ddr not sddram.
about soundcards i got delta 44 its great for what i need i also hear echo soundcards are great

hmm. I'd recommed intel because it's more stable due to fewer heat problems. There was also some things in the calculation processes that were better in Intel, that affects music making. I admit that amd is faster when playing etc.
Both processors are good though. If you're using VSTis I'd recommed at least 1024MB of RAM.
Make also sure that the harddisk is at least 9000rpm for faster datastorage/recovery. the size is for you to decide.
The soundcard is also one big issue. What do want from it? What do you need from it? There's like piles of good soundcards, it just depends things like do you need a breakout box? are you gonna do the mixing in computer or mixing table? How many I/O you need for audio? How many for midi? that's why i won't recommend any straight ahead. Go look around these topics with search. Theres lots of writings about different sound cards, maybe you find the best fitting for you that way.
if not, specify better what do want from soundcard and then'll try to sort that one out
