a single quad core should be enough, <br>and probably 4GB of RAM<br>the problem with graphics is the display card/s you would probably need at least 2 high end card in SLI/Crossfire<br>you'll have to get either 2 Nvidia 9800 or even better 2 Nvidia 280, or if you really swim in money - 3 of them<br>
or if you prefer the alternative - get the new ATI/AMD 4870 and if which cost about half or even less but loose only a bit in speed, <br>these also come in 2 or 3 card configuration.<br>or you can wait for the 4870X2 with 2 GPU's on each card - that should be out by august, and still cost a lot less them the NV280 but run faster.<br>
