Workstation build

Speedbird

Hi

I want to build a workstation for VMs, my main rig isn't made for that. It needs to be remotely accessible, so Intel vPro (especially AMT) would be nice. It will also be doing a little gaming, so I got a 260X for it. So anyway, here it is. Budget is 1000 euros, must be ITX form factor.

One SSD for the OS, the other for VMs. And CSM is Haswell Certified and 80+ Gold, CXM is not.

It's in Estonian, but I think you can figure it out with Google Translate.
