Is it really bad to raid them ? I will have a look at those you mentioned instead I just remember they were more expensive

I went with cheap ram cause I had to cut somewhere.. but really wanted 24 gigs for video editing epically.

The GPUs is what I am waiting for , I want to get one of the gtx 480's due out in a few days

Ah, the rendering helps it all makes sense.

If you've got the SSD's, why would you bother with a raptor after that? Wouldn't you want a 1.5 or 2.0tb drive?

if your doing some hard core rendering. and looking at the cost of a single i980x wouldn't you get better performance out of a dual proc board and some lower priced xeons. instead of of a desktop chip.

Perineum I have a raptor in there for high'ish speed storeage but also a 1tb external for really storing things.

I probably would lcdguy but I bet that is a whole different can of worms. I am also hoping for big gains in time from CUDA processing on the gtx 480. Taking some of the pressure off my CPU during that. My setup now my card supported it but mobo never did.

Yikes ZZLEE you found it ! Thats what I was originally looking at.. 1550 almost for 24 gigs :( Thats why I went with 24 gigs of the valueram for 900

I would say get rid of the velociraptor. the old velociraptors are pretty much outdated in terms of storage and speed. the new ones are better, but speed wise, are not in the same class as the SSD. The Current 1 or 2 TB drives from western digital or seagate are pretty close to as fast as the raptor. I would replace the velociraptor with a TB drive for sure.

If you will be doing lots of video editing, you are going to be using a lot of storage space. so you should probably get some 1TB drives for you primary storage. I dont see any on the wishlist you posted, so I'm recommending them.

I would also agree with previous posters in saying that the 980X is very overkill. way too much money for the performance. you could easily get 70-80% of that performance for 1/3 of the price with a 920 or 930 and overclocking.

just my 2 cents
