Hi guys,

Can someone recommend a server board for E3 v2. I'm in the process of collecting parts to build a NAS. I do a need a mini itx form factor one to fit in a U-NAS NSC800 case. I looked at the Intel S1200KPR which has all the functions I need such as ECC / dual LANs / DVI out however it only has PCIe 2.0. Perhaps because its based on Intel C206 chipset. Can anyone recommend a PCIe 3.0 board ? Im thinking of getting an Intel E3-1225v2. The reason why I need PCIe 3.0 is because I was hoping to get an Adaptec 7805 RAID Card.

Thanks in advance.
