I'm looking to get into Linux, and I was leaning toward building a Linux computer; however given the mass number of Linux distributions this could be quite the daunting task. I realize that the newer the Linux distribution the greater support there is in terms of components. Well, with that been said I'm looking for the following support in terms of hardware:
1) CPU: P4/CD2, A64/X2
2) Any Modern Chipset
3) SLI or CrossFire
4) SATA
5) RAID Support
6) PCI-E Video Cards
How difficult will this be? Are their any build guides for the various Linux distributions? What about Linux drivers for SLI and CrossFire? What games will run under Linux?
