Martin Garrix's Gear
In this Tweet, Martin is surrounded by parts— likely the mentioned parts he bought— necessary to custom-build a PC.
In this video, it can be seen on the studio computer at 11:56.
In a studio session video, Martin Garrix said he uses different versions of FL Studio he has installed, since he has not consolidated all the samples and synth sounds into one version (due to lack of time).
The official Image Line website features a Martin Garrix testimonial:
I looked for a program that is easy to use for productions and gives fast results when making tracks. I tried to switch to logic a few times but it's just not my thing. If I have an idea I want to be able to work it out really fast so I can decide if it's worth finishing. Besides that FL Studio has some really good plugins itself which I use a lot.
A few more sources:

At 1:13 of the video "Martin Garrix Goes Undercover on Twitter, YouTube and Reddit | GQ," on Quora he is asked:
Which software does Martin Garrix use?
He answers:
I use FL Studio, and to record vocals we use Pro Tools. FL Studio is just an extension of my brain. If I think of something, it takes me 30 seconds before its in there. It might not sound good, but the idea is there… and then afterwards I polish it.
His actual answer on Quora can be seen as a comment to this question here.
An iMac sits on Martin Garrix's desk in his studio. He has a PC which he uses to run his main DAW FL Studio, but he uses the iMac to occasionally work in Logic.
From Twitter: "@marvinpoo true, I started like that (everybody does) but now I've bought FL, Logic, Nexus, Sylenth1, Massive and Gross Beat! haha"
