Mantra's right.

Stay away from SLI (and Crossfire). Don't go quad core. You won't get the performance increase you're expecting, wanting, or even paying for if you get any at all. Check some benchmarks on tomshardware. You'll be surprised.

As for brands, I'd stick with Intel and nVidia for now.

And for an OS, I'd say 64-bit XP. I wouldn't mess with Server 08 unless you actually wanted to put some work into it and know what you're doing (which I assume you don't).

Wtf?! Always get even amounts of ram. 2gb or 4gb. (and with how inexpensive ram is today, I think 4gb is the only real option) Don't EVER get 3gb of ram for anything.
