AMD dual core works great for running Sonar Home Studio. I've tried Cubase too, but that program blows - there's a reason they give it away for free with every piece of computer recording equipment. Most of the XP tweaks will only give you limited performance improvement compared to the big two: turn off internet and turn off anti-virus software.
You probably already found a sound card, but if you're ever looking for a good mixer for computer applications, try the SoundCraft Compact 4 mixer.
