Looks to me which one wins.

I am planning on buying a new gaming computer soon-ish, and I would need to decide which hard drive configuration I should get for optimal speed, with out breaking the bank.
My options are
1) dual Western Digital 7200RPM configured to RAID 0
or
2) WD Raptor 10k RPM + a seperate 7200 for storage
Now, config #2 is actually a bit more expensive than the dual 7200RPM, and I know RAID 0 adds speed by combining the read/write speeds, etc, but I dont know enough to make an informed decision without help.
Thanks in advance,
zach
