          Hi Folks, what I'm looking for is your suggestions would be for me on the following hardware, as I'm buying a new system. I have a badass Visionmaster pro 19 inch monitor, but I just need a CPU.
 
My budget $800
 
What I want:
 
A good motherboard that will do IDE raid (is it worth it?)
A decent video card(not the best)
A Badass sound card
Enough Ram to run .Net advanced server
A case with a poopload of good fans
300 Watt PS
Basic fast CD-ROM, no burner
2-3 of the fastest IDE drives available totaling 40-80 gigs(for a Raid 0 config)
Pentium IV 1.5ghz
 
I've been out of touch with the lastest hardware out there..and I'd appreciate the help! Thanks a lot!
