As my old Q6600 is going on retirement, it's time for a new workstation. I do a lot of development on it, GIS and DB related stuff. Until now, I use a Server to store my DB but with this build I would love to do more virtualized.

3 most used areas:
- interweb
- virtualization
- programming (single thread shit)

3 bullet points:
- Reliability
- Performance
- Silence! (leave stuff over night...)

Please check it, no case needed.

hmm, any suggestions?
.
Thought about doing something in CUDA one day... ;) 'I do cuda to buy a nvidia, to play games'- kind of strategy...

Wouldn't a 460W PSU be wiser? The components take around 200W i'd say, a powerful GPU will bring the PSU to the edge...
