Memory: 8G, all one stick, which is slower than

maybe not the best choice, but seems ok.
I doubt that the difference is measurable, let alone noticeable.
In any case, this allows easier upgrading to 16 GB. :) Disk: 2TB sata about 5 years old (as I recall)
Nowadays, not using an SSD tends to be the bottleneck.
(But this is probably not the case for streaming audio.)
I chose this MB because it had three pci slots
The PCIe/PCI bridges built into chipsets are reliable, but motherboards
that have a separate chip for this tend to use cheap crap.
Your ASM1083 is infamous. Revision 1 was unusably buggy; rev. 3 mostly
works (except for virtualization). Which one do you have (lspci)?
ASUS was nice enough to list the irq layout of
the pci(e) slots in the
user guide.
"Nice" isn't enough, it should be _correct_ (which was not the case for
my last Asus manual).
Anyway, PCIe devices that support MSI use a completely separate
interrupt line. (USB3 ports, graphics, and built-in audio should be
harmless then.)
You need to check /proc/interrupts to be sure.

Clemens
