C'mon, this is a dream rig! Where are the 150GB Raptors and the 750GB Seagates?! :D

SeaSonic M12 SS-700HM
I'm not sure 700W would power all those HDD's as well as two 8800GTX's. I'd go with PCP & C's 1000W psu.

Dell Ultrasharp 3007WFP 30inch LCD
Nice!

hahahaha You noobs do realize that your dream builds are mearly the top components of today with the latest technology. These "Dream Builds" will all be the same and change rapidly as new tech comes out. Maybe you guys could just realize this and quit cluttering the board with these posts. That or make the post at least entertaining.
 
I'd get one of these guys for myself. I'm sure I won't be outdated anytime soon.

Here's my video card...

My guess would be around $75K for the rig (not that I've priced monitors or anything)
 
I just did my dream build ---

Enough TV tuners to record all that I wish, enough drive space to save a couple weeks of programs.

For the moment -

1.5TB of Western Digital drives. No Raid - The system runs cooler without RAID.
2 VistaView Saber 2020 PCIe dual SD tuner cards
2 VBox PCI HD tuner cards
Athlon64 3700+

---

I would like to replace the SD tuners with HD tuners, but that would require 3 times the
disk space.
 
I'd be happy with Quad-Core X6800, 8 GB RAM, 5 TB HD space, and Quad 8800GTXs.

:D
 
My dream build right now would be a copy of Ockie's Galaxy v3.0. I hate digging through thousands of CDs for /that/ particular file, and I hate the idea of all my CDs slowly deteriating. I'm quite happy with my x1900xt for gaming, even if my 3000Winnie and RAM bottlenecks it.

The fact that terabyte fileservers automatically make you the Resident FileGod of any LAN party you go to has no bearing on the matter, honestly.

The 5in3 bays would be unobtanium for me, though. The closest I can find in NZ is Promise 4in3, for $500 NZD.
