Default building 2nd sys. need help.

I'm getting ready to build my second home PC and its been at least 4 years
since I built this one, I'm a little behind on what will work and not. I
have a list of items I put together from Tigerdirect.com and would like to
get some feedback on the piece's I gotten down. What I'm building is (I
hope) a gaming,Internet,and a PC for my wife to do her college home work on,
that is Fast, reliable, and good enough to play the newest games out. Please
look at the list and let me know what you think. I've used SATA drives
before and I'm not sure If RAID 0,1 is something I should consider.
