Core components like the processors, mobo, PSUs, hard drives and video cards are the same because there are are limited companies that make them. Ram, drives, cooling parts have different makers here. I recently upgraded my ram due to an overclocking issue (my fault).

I built my computer in Canada before coming over here with it (What a heavy beast it was). These are my stock specs.

Processor: CoreQuad Extreme 3.00Ghz (This is a Yorkfield chip)
Mobo: Asus Maximus Formula (comes with a quite decent sound card)
Video: 2x 9800 GX2 1GB(ea.)
Ram: 8GBs DDR-1066 FireStix (Japanese brand, runs quite well)
HD: 1.9TB (1x400GB, 1x500GB, 1x1TB
PSU: 1000w Antec

When I go hardcore with illustrator this build has no problems no matter how complex or large my file is. Do you overclock Ryuk999?
