Just dropped $280 for the base Z800 with case. 2 x5650 cpu for $110, 96GB ram for $160, $30 for 120GB SSD. Total $580.
The MB is a beast with 6 pcie that can fit any pcie card in any slot, although only 2 are full 75watt x16. It has 14 onboard SATA connectors.
Compared to the latest skylake, seems like skylake will win hand down in single core bench, but as soon as you get to multi core optimized task, z800 would kill it...
Planning on putting a quadro 6000, which still has one of the top fp64 for nvida!
I cant believe how cheap the cpu are for the lower tier 1366. e5520 for like $3
