Budget is $5000. Maybe $6000 or $7000. Need monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers.

seriously, theres a big gap between 5000 and 7000. and i hope its not because the setup in your sig is old...

HOLY SH*T! ARE YOU CRAZY!?

ok anways...

hmm... 2 7800gtx?

AMD fx60 maybe? It has dual core but I've read reviews on how it yielded less performance than the higher clocked fx57 when it comes to gaming.

An insane psu that can handle everything

at least 2 gigs of good low lat ram.

Harddrive would be up to you, obviously budget isn't a problem so this should be a big deal.

ARe you planning to OC? I would assume this is for gaming, and what country do you live in? (so we know what currency to use)

I live in USA (It's for a client)
I plan on getting SLI 7800GTX 512MB
AMD Athlon 64 FX60
2GB OCZ EB DDR-500 RAM
500GB SATA2 16mb cache HDD (maybe SCSI)
PC Power and Cooling 850W PSU
DFI LANPARTY EXPERT or ASUS A8N32-SLI

2 GB's ONLY?? Are you crazy...lol, go for 4 gigs. As for the comp it seems like a excellent set-up. O, and since your client is so rich..id suggest buying a 32" Samsung LCD HDTV and using it as a primary computer monitor.
