OK, I'm building (currently just on paper) the Ultimate PC (price is not an object), however I'm not the best with hardware, so I'm going to need some help. Please remember that currently I'm not planing on buying it, because I don't have enough money, but hopefully when I get some more I can!
OK so far here's what I have found. And please, if I don't have the best hardware listed post something better!

I still need a Mother Board, power supply, liquid cooling, case, processor and whatever else I forget to mention
.
I think I will go with AMD (if Intel is better let me know) and currently I'm not going to pick out a monitor or speaker setup.
I'm not good with mother boards, but if we are building the ultimate PC we wouldn't want on board Video or sound, would we?
I'm planing on having the two hard drives set up in RAID 0 to increase speed, so the mother board needs to have RAID built in.
I'm also not sure of the best mother board brand, is ASUS the best?
so far current total is $2701.91
This should be fun!
