You can has:
- Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 or better (buy another cooler though)
- Decent Motherboard with Cross-Fire, and an 8GB+ RAM capacity.
- 3GB - 4GB of Corsair/G-Skill RAM (buy cooling for them too)
- 2x ATI 4890's or Nvidia 260's (or whatever they are)
- 1000 Watt power supply (I recommend Corsair or Silverstone.)
- Big case and 3 or 4 fans that can move a lot of air reasonable quietly.
- Raptor 10,000/15,000 RPM boot hard drive
- 1/2TB storage drive
- Blue Ray drive
Its pretty much all you will need. It is all getting cheaper month by month. So it might not be worth going nuts on the i7/i5 CPU's and the biggest video card yet. It has to slow down at some point. Go nuts then.
