My friend is trying to build a fast computer to use only for audio, this computer will be used to record and produce songs and audio, he have had trouble with past computers not being able to handle his massive projects, any suggestions on great computer parts or whole computers to use would be helpful, thanks in advance. Do you know any this about these things?

Your friend will find this page useful as a basic guide to what is needed: http://www.pcmusicstuff.com/home_studio.html
He should make sure that the system has at least the minimum specs for the mixing software he chooses to use and he will need the largest hard disk he can afford.
As far as the software is concerned, there is little point in using a dual core processor unless the software supports it but, if it does, then the fastest dual core processor and the maximum amount of RAM would be essential.
The audio cards which are built in to many motherboards are very basic and he will need a separate, dedicated sound card as well as plenty of fast USB or Firewire ports.
