Or failing such...a perhaps somewhat less ridiculous idea to which I'm trying to orientate myself as I finally get around to build myself a rig.
Showing how incredibly blur I am at this I went to try the 'newegg way'; simply looked at all the highest rated items and added them to my list.
Can any of the experts share some comments? Especially if any bottlenecks will occur, or if I'm seriously off somewhere or in for a beating.
