That hardware looks good, but if you need CUDA to support your software I would suggest going bold with the GPU.
So, does the audio software need/use CUDA?

hey! Thanks for the quick reply. Cuda is not needed - I've just scoured all forums.

Any recommendations regarding GPU, does not have to fancy ^^ output for 2 screens, thats it...

Thanks in advance for your help!

You can run dual monitors off of the integrated HD630 graphics. No dedicated graphics card is needed then.

Hmm, I've also considered this option, but I'm afraid that this is not enough graphics performance. Various plugins are a little "graphic-intensive", and sometimes 2 Daw's run on.

Fanless GTX 750 will fit that case.

They're still supported on Macintosh so yes the drivers ship with the OS. Edit: Actually i think the 750 needs the web driver, the Kepler 700s still have drivers though.

If you are interested in where GPU's stand in terms of performance...
