Which choice is better for speed? And what you think about my new PC 🙂

The 2600 is excellent bang for the buck – good choice.
Personally I’d get an SSD for the bootdisk – Intel is considered the top brand – but I don’t know how the Crucial performs. There are a lot of speed differences between models. And I’d definitely put in 16GB of RAM. RAM is cheap and nowadays AE makes good use of it.
In the past you couldn’t install Adobe CS on a RAID volume – not sure how it is today but I wouldn’t go there. SSD’s are great for system and bootdisk.

I agree with Barend about SSDs being good for installing OS and applications. But I’d never use one for my source media.
