A good entry-level, but needs more CPU for professional applications

This has been my computer for producing thus far. Though it has served me well, it is no perfect computer. One gripe of mine is that I have had some serious dropouts and noises running one of my latest Ableton projects. Even with closing tabs and upgrading the RAM, issues have persisted somewhat, albeit to a lesser extent.

Okay forgot to mention this but over Labor Day weekend I was closing it up and the hinges broke, cracking part of the plastic on the bottom and nearly breaking the screen! It's duct-taped together at the moment XD
