New computer, recommendations?

[Peter King]

I have to replace my flakey Athlon Phenom II system with something that I
hope will be more reliable and more quiet. I've had very good luck with i7
systems, so I thought that would be a reasonable way to go. I also have an
Asus Xonar sound card to migrate. But otherwise, I'm in the market for a new
system: running quiet and running cool are important.

Suggestions? What to buy? What to avoid?
