How much $$$ you plan on spending on this bad boy???

[HeadBand]

the fastest all depends on what you are using it for...could you tell us that so we can help pick components

[Dax_Brandy]

how fast will your fastest computer be?

[AndyTLe]

5 GHz Liquid Nitrogen Cooled... The fastest I've seen.

Depends on what your definition of "fast" is...are you talking raw Ghz or benchmarks? And, as Martoch mentioned, how much $$$ are you planning on laying out? You'll be paying top-dollar if you're after the fastest thing going (which will most assuredly only be the fastest for 6-12 months-if that- as new technology is introduced).

wait 2-3months, til the next video recard refresh occurs, by then intel and AMD should have stepped up the speed of their top procs again as well.

my limit is 3000 US $!!!
i need the fastest one!

[blubomber]

Keep in mind that you will only have the fastest for about 4 months.

Here is what i would suggest.

Athlon 64 3400+ or FX.
SATA hard drive. Capacity depending on needs.
ATI Radeon 9800XT with 256MB RAM
2GB of the fastest memory.

I am sorry i cannot suggest a motherboard for i am not up to speed on Athlon 64 chipsets.

Well, this is the fastest comp in the world right now. Click Link

I think you may be a wee bit short on cash for this.

So, what are you looking to use this computer for?

EDIT:
This seems more in your price range. Asus A8V Deluxe ~$140
Athlon64 3200Ghz ~$280
