6800GT/7300GT/7600GT - X1800XT
1GB DDR2 RAM @ 800 MHz or 512MB DDR2 RAM @ 800 MHz
WD Raptor 150GB / WD 250GB SATA
550W PSU
2-3 120-80mm system fans
I suggest u opt for DDR2 platforms as DDR will be phased out in near future and then you will have same problems like u have getting RDRAM...and for DDR2 I prefer 800 MHZ RAM....it may be bit costly right now, but what you can do is opt for 512MB DDR2 right now and later upgrade to 1 GB of DDR2 @ 800 MHz.
Get the lowest dual core..ie 3800+ along with A8NE board. For graphics, get a 7300GTfor 5.5k. It performs equal to a 7600GS nd is almost 2k less expensive. If u want a gud brand like ASUS or XFX it would cost u 6k, but then also its worth it.
