What Are the Best Components for Building a High-Performance Desktop?

[nbo10]

Hey all,
Since I've moved to a laptop I haven't built a pc in 7-8 years. But I'm thinking about building a desktop for home. What's the deal with the latest processors/memory/motherboard/graphcis card combo?

Not exactly sure what your question is :)

Toms Hardware has regular articles on building you own computer at various price points with discussions about the various hardware options.

I used to do that myself, but I don't consider it a good use of my time anymore. I still buy components to upgrade and repair my systems.

The small question has a very detailed and tiring answer.
