So we work on the hardware for the host of a camera stream http://www.sundiegolive.com/ (yes the stream quality is bad atm, hence the upgrades) and we are upgrading all the cameras and the encoders/streaming servers. Here is what I'm working with:
 

CPU - Intel Xeon E5-2687W
Motherboard - SuperMicro X9SRE-3F
RAM - 64 GB DDR3 12800

"GPU" (parallel computation accelerator) - NVIDIA Tesla K40

Will post pictures in a bit.

CPU: i7-3930K @ 4.8GHz MOBO: IV Gene RAM: 16GB Crucial Ballistix Tactical Tracer 1866MHz GPU: GTX 780 Ti CASE: Corsair 350D STORAGE: 2 x Samsung 840 Pro 256 GB, 2x WD Red 4TB
PSU: EVGA SuperNova 650W DISPLAY: 1 x ASUS VG248QE, 3 x Dell U2414H COOLING: Corsair H100i INPUT: Corsair Vengeance K70, SteelSeries Sensei AUDIO: Sennheiser HD 280 Pro, ATH-M50s, Beredynamic DT770 Pro, Steelseries H Wireless
