case, i was thinking a cooler master HAF case but im not too fussed
cpu, i think AMD is normally chosen for mining rigs but im not certain.
motherboard, needs to be capable of having multiple graphics cards and having wake on lan would be useful
ram, the minimum required
graphics cards, i dont know what is best for this, multiple cards or one bigger card.

hard drive, nothing fancy needed here i dont think
disk drive, again nothing special.
