my dream pc looks a little like this i think:

Intel i5-3570K/i7-3770K with Corsair H100i
Asus Maximus V Gene
32gb atleast 2400mhz
GTX680 4GB or GTX 690...

Intel 335 256gb SSD (One or Two)
WDC Red 2TB (4 of them)
Blu-ray Optical drive x:

SeaSonic SS-860XP
Cooler-Master HAF XB case

and last but not least one Asus Xonar Essence One ^^;

For me it would be pretty much what I have right now, maybe change the motherboard to a dual socket Z9PE-D8 WS from Asus, maybe get two high clocked 8-core 16-thread Intel Xeons, maybe get a couple of 240GB SSDs (preferably Intel), and maybe a new case that can take EEB.

A second 7950 for crossfire,two 120gb/240gb SSD's in raid 0 and a 1600p led IPS monitor or a 1080p 120hz monitor.
its not the BEST system but i dont need more then that.

Edit:Oh and maybe an Asus xonar essence STX+sennhieser pc360.

This is hard to answer though because with unlimited funds I'd probably be swapping/upgrading a part or two like every month. And would have multiple "machines".

Eh, I'm happy with what I have now.
