i think today if you get a good quad core (Intel 9650/9750) you won't need 2 CPU's, <br>you do need 4GB or more, and a 64bit vista.<br>and always a very good Power supply - that one of the more important components.<br>
also about a case - get a good one like the Lian-Li ones, they are extremely good<br><br>but again - if you can wait a while till Q4, the new Intel CPU's are now sampling and are already 30% faster on the same clock, and they will use a completely new board and socket.<br>
