Hi,

 

I'm planning to build a low cost build to do a server/gaming  RIG. I planning to buy 2 Xeon E5-2630-v2 (It's not ver expensive), but i'm stuck on what motherboard should I buy... I'm planning to build on a workstation/tower.

 

If you have some advice or hints for my build feel free to share ! :)

i can recommend the Xeon X5650 and there are plenty of dual socket1366 boards on ebay for these... both are SUPER CHEAP

Those guys run super slow, I would take a look at the 1366 xeons, once OC'd they rock the house performance wise

mines at 4GHz.... and yes it ROCKS
