So I have two Intel Xeon X5650's and I'm trying to rebuild my server. Can someone help me out in finding a good motherboard, case, ram, and power supply that is compatible with each other and really low price? I also want the motherboard to be able to allow me to put both cpus in it.

 

Thanks,

Check out the HP Z800 motherboards, or the SuperMicro X8DTL-3F

They fit standard EATX cases
