Good point there....
Anyway Andre here's what you need:
Intel 2.4c CPU (to be overclocked to 3.6ghz @ over 1000mhz fsb on fan cooling!)
ABIT IC7-G Motherboard
Either cheap PC4000, or PC3700 high performance low latency ram.. depending on what the system will primarly be intended for.
A good heatink like Thermaltake SLK-900u, pop a big fan on top of that.
I think I might go with 2 SATA 36gig raptors and run it on raid 0 (SATA raid included on motherboard)
OR since I have a U160 controller around here somewhere, maybe I'll just get a bigger 15k SCSI drive.
