I'm a bit late...

 

Thats a LGA 2011 aka Socker R CPU and LGA1151 motherboard. You need a motherboard with X79 chipset or C602 and they are not cheap.

 

 

OP I think people are using older Dell poweredge servers for this kind of stuff. Look into it.. I think they are cheaper than anything listed here.

If you can run the NAS/streaming via a VM on your main rig, could you not run the web/print/etc. from the Raspberry Pi? If there isn't really any traffic to the site and not a ton of printing going on, I don't see why that couldn't be handled by the Pi

Is the CPU compatible with the motherboard? LGA2011 CPU with a LGA1151 Motherboard?
