I do music production as a hobby, and the two things you will basically need are lots of cores and lots of RAM. Get the RyZen 1700x and buy a cheap dedicated GPU with it like this R7 240. You could even get the 1700 which is a bit cheaper and comes with a cooler.
okay so this is what I made. its 300$. i already have an ATX case (https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129021&ignorebbr=1&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC-_-pla-_-Cases+%28Computer+Cases+-+ATX+Form%29-_-N82E16811129021&gclid=Cj0KEQjw2LjGBRDYm9jj5JSxiJcBEiQAwKWAC_SmOYsHT5uAQysdCuarpNWMVKwlNfPEOO_KHRoBW04aAknk8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds) and a 256gig SSD hard drive. a monitor and a video card (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FRHIIPK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1). a mouse and keyboard that work good too.

The AMD alternative (at that price) would be an R7 240
Even cheaper on Amazon!! The item is free (rebates cover $35) and you just pay tax if you a Prime member!
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FRHIIPK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. Amazon sells it for $35 (look on right side of the screen).
Does anyone know how the two rebates would work though? Both require one UPC.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
The price on that machine is shit for being a first Gen i5. You can go to ebay and buy 3rd gen i5s refurbished Dells for around 150-200
