New Work & Gaming Build 2011

[johnstac]

So begins a mission to complete a killer gaming system and also be able to handle the work side of things. I will probably continue with the Windows 64, Raid 0 I think. (Frankly, I cant remember what Raid 0 provide anymore). Some general things I want to bid the system around are:

solid state drives
dual video cards
intel CPU
separate audio card
CPU - I don't generally the very best but there is usually one that stands out as a great value

I'm looking for any input you guys can provide. As if you were building it yourself. Budget is, I don't know 3-4k. I'm partial to intel, nVidia, open minded on a motherboard, memory good brands only. Well, that's it for now. I want to bring stuff her to have you guys evaluate but I would sure like to hear your suggestions and why.

Thanks,

john
