So i have two intel Xeon E5520 and i am looking for a nice motherboard that will support 32gb RAM. I already have the liquid cooling and SSD ready. Just need to get the motherboard, ram, case and powersupply. Any recommendations?
At first I would have said jump on the asus Z9PE-D8 WS but iirc that doesn't have your socket type. I think the Z8NA-D6C would be closer to what you are looking for?
As for the rest, well if you've found a bottomless pit of money you could go for corsair dominator platinum RAM, but failing that the vengeance dimms have very nice heatsinks if you are going for a pretty looking build.
I think the case is more of a matter of opinion, I recently got the thermaltake level 10 gt for my build, but I've had a fair few people telling me it's ugly as sin. On the other side of the spectrum the bitfenix ghost is a much less conspicuous case, although if you are going for anything over a dual radiator you may have to get a bit creative with that one.
For your PSU I'd keep in mind any future upgrades you are considering before settling on a capacity, but running 2 cpu's I'd look for at least an 80 plus gold cert.
Sorry for the vague answers, but I hope it's given you a few ideas

I have the motherboards you need. They're have 6slots for ram each and 14 stata ports. They're server Motherboards. I'm welling to sell them to you through ebay or something. Let me know if you still interested.
