I am planning to build a system myself (for the first time) to run sql server and oracle databases along with some reporting tools.

After some research, I have decided to buy Xeon E5-2620 V2, Asus P9X79 E-WS motherboard and I will be using Windows 2012 R2 server.

I want to use 16-32GB RAM but I am not sure which model #s are compatible.

I would highly appreciate if someone could suggest me a compatible RAM, cooler, psu, hard drive, graphics card and a case that would run the system without much NOISE AND HEAT. I don't play games. Apart from database applications, I will also run Matlab and other computational software. Please suggest what else would I need.

Thanks in advance.

I'd look to the GSkill Ripjaws Z in 1600/9 or the GSkill snipers, The Hyper 212 EVO is a good cooler for your combo, I like the HAF cases, maybe the mid tower HAF 922, a seaSonic 600 PSU, and for a GPU, don't need a lot a 7850 is a reasonably priced GPU
