Questions I got?
- Is watercooling hardware dangerious? No, just go custom or not at all.
- What is the maximum mb ram a processor/motherboard can handle atm? 4GB+, you should never buy more than 2GB for gaming, anything more is wasted.
- What video/graphics card should I buy? X1900XT gets my vote.
- Possible to make it 1,000 gig? ( with/without external harddrives ) Yes, you can buy 2 x 500GB hard drives, why you would ever need this much space is beyond me.
- DvD/Cd rewriter / burner / indrive which is the best version? Depends on personal preferance, I don't have a preferance as the speeds don't matter to me.
- Sound card? The X-Fi's are really good for gaming.
Budget: doesn't matter! aslong as this pc will last for quete a while!
any ideas are most likely welcome!

IMO pick up a Conroe or AM2. That'll get you the best upgrade path, price drops for AMD products on the 24th, and Conroe is released on the 14th.
