thx for the links, my main concern isnt necessarily the price, the choices you picked were a bit out of my range, although i havent factored in that i have a monitor, speakers etc. i just need

RAM
mobo
CPU

i have an 80gb RAID using a modified IDE card. these HDs are circa 2002 and so they dont have the extra buffer, all i know is that there are to 40gb 7200rpm EIDE drives. is it proper to assume i will need a new RAID as well if im going to get a mobo that has DDR RAM, is faster and has more capabilities?

how do you know which components will function properly with eachother? thats the hardest thing for me to understand...
thx for the replies fellas.
