Building a new system

[ReallyLikeToFly]

I've been building my own systems for year so I don't need a lot of hand holding. I'm a bit out of touch with current CPU & MB technology. This is primarily a home office PC, but I like to play an occasional FPS. I don't need bleeding edge technology, I just need a stable system with RAID. I spend what I need to to build a solid system. I will NOT be overclocking. Any thoughts on CPU, MB pairings would be appreciated.
Thanks

I read the guidelines before posting. As I stated in my original post. "I don't need bleeding edge technology, I just need a stable system with RAID. I'll spend what I need to to build a solid system."

OP, you could at least have some sort of idea before you post. Read the November Buyer's Guide on the AnandTech main page.

What kind of RAID are you looking for? Tell me it's not RAID-0, please.

Oh, and

RAID-1, for redundancy. Looks like I'm going for the "GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3R LGA" & "E4500"
