If you want enjoyable gaming, toss out the RAID completely... it can run great, it can also be your biggest headache that just isn't worth it.

Looks like a great build - you've done your homework.

BUT, since your dropping a small fortune on that rig, it would porbably be best to go with AMD's new socket - the AM2. It now officially supports DDR2, which is basically they only difference. You may have to wait a few weeks - I couldnt find any of the X2 AM2 processors on newegg.com.
