well, the first question u'll ask me, what u will use it for? and how much are u willing to spend!
the answer is: i will use for multithreading and gaming, i want it to be super fast!
i have no money limit!
i want the most powerful and fastest pc available now :D

what i am sure of, till now, i will get the 4800, and the new creative x-fi fatal1ty...
as for the vga i will be getting the 7800 GTX

i need memory, mobo, and storage...
lets start by picking a mobo..

what do u advice guys? do i get a dfi? or get the sapphire PI-A9RX480 already reviewed in anandtech and show some real advantages over the DFI..

i wont be ocing, i dont need to :p
as for the rams: i am thinking of getting 2*1gb PC4000 crucial ballistixs

are they best and fatest ones? or are there any faster ones, like ocz gold pc4000? is it better to get 4*512mb or 2*1gb??

as for the storage, i need speed and capacity..
i was thinking of a 75gb raptor and a 500gb tk500, or it better to get 2*t7k250 or 2*DM10??

as you see i have a lot of options..
i need your opinions, and any better choices are welcomed!
 
is it better to get 2*1gb PC3200 with latency 2.2 - 2.3 then to get 2*1gb PC 4000 with latency 3.3 - 3.4 ??
and why?
 
Why mess around with a slow raptor if money is no object setup a raid system with 15k scsi drives
 
$50 more than a 74gb raptor gets you a fujistu 36 gb scsi drive.

Rator:
Average Latency: 2.99ms
Average Seek Time: 4.5ms
Average Write Time: 5.9ms

SCSI:
Average Latency: 2ms
Average Seek Time: 3.3ms
Average Write Time: 3.8ms
 
let's forget now about the hdd, can we focuse on what mobo and rams to get? please?
 
u r right!
but it is only 36 gb :(

honeslty i dont even want to get the raptor 74 gb , because @ his price i can get 2*200 gb wd Sata II

anyway the 36 gb wont be enough for my OS, games, and software!
