52x32x52x CDRW (Plextor Premium), PC35/3700 Low Latency CAS2 ram, 6.1
speaker set, The Xaser III case without the PSU and a Enermax 550W instead
(more juice in the +12v), Water cooling rig (like Asetek WaterChill or
Corsair HydroCool 200), use 2*Raptor disks in RAID 0 for FAST boot disk and
maybe a UDMA 133 250GB for data storage..
If you put your mind to it there's always mroe things you could do...
It all comes down to just how much money you want to spend.

Best Wishes
Thomas

Go with the WD "Raptor" SATA 10K RPM drives. They are only 36gb, but 2 of
those in raid 0 would kick a$$.

I think your missing the most important item you will purchase and
without the above items are usless. A GOOD POWER SUPPLY. And I don't
call a $29.99 special good. Make sure it can steadly give out 30 amps
on the +12 volt line. Over the years I've found good power removes a
lot of crazy problems. Pay now or later.

And cheap generic RAM is usually another false economy.
