Help with new pc rig..

[musicworld]

Hi could anyone help,
i'm customizing my own PC for music production basically from the ground up, would be looking to have the best of this / that etc, decent memory moduals, decent PCI soundcard, decent graphics card etc. the processor will be intels core 2 duo, not the quad, the core is good enough for my needs, will also be looking at 3 hard drives, 120 gigs for each drive, giving me 360 gigs of ram, should be good enough for the DAW and all those plugins / stored data etc. finally, would want a decent cooling solution, would'nt want the console over heating etc, i'm assuming the CPU fan will come bundled with the processor itself, if not would need a decent CPU fan also. my chosen platform of choice would be W-XP-SP2-32bit, finally a decent mobo, considering all the above, what motherboard would be compatible for all of this, i'm a solo composer working with one instrument an VST plugins.. budget not an issue

Cheers

360Gigs of RAM? Yeah that should be enough...

Not enough I say! You need at least 2 terabytes of ram. And then a couple of petabytes on your hard drives.
