I've only just come across this feature, but I think it's a monthly thing. Anyway, here's the link:
Hardware 2.0 “Best Kit List” for Jun/Jul 08 | Hardware 2.0 | ZDNet.com
The feature covers
CPUs,
Motherboards,
Graphics Cards,
Hard Drives,
RAM,
Sound Cards/Speakers,
Coolers,
PSUs,
Cases and
Monitors.
Something I found interesting was that the best CPU, Motherboard, Graphics Card and RAM that are suggested are the ones I'm hoping to put in my new build in September (bragging rights, here I come!

):
Intel QX9770, Asus
Striker II,
nVidia 9800GX2 and
Corsair TwinX Dominator (DDR3 PC12800).
It's an interesting read even if you're not in the market for new components as it's a chance to see what a hardware journalist thinks about current components.
Can I haz Tek fourum plz?
