Probably been said but in short...

Intel is much better than AMD in the multi-core realm.

I've always liked Nvidia over ATI, but the long-run result is that they always go back and forth for whoever has the best card, but Nvidia has always had superior drivers.

Raid 0 is still very good, but rather than stripe a couple 200gb drives its faster (and not very much more) just to buy a single WD Velociraptor 10K RPM 300gb drive.

One must remember striping increases data read/write but does not quicken seek time (actually worsens it).
