    Need help with Nehalem Dual XEON 5520 Build

    Hello All,

    http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/Pu...umber=17220888

    Above is my public build list. I'm interested in help on the mb and the ram, and maybe the psu, but in general just comments/suggestions. I've set a budget of about $2800. Ram is negotiable from 24 to 12, just not sure with the QPI I can only populate the first 3 and the second cpu will be fine.

    Thanks for any help. I currently have Dual XEON 5410's which I will be moving from to this and am also interested in speed comparisons if you know of any. My z7s is one of the few here still running, so also doing this in case that one bites it.
