Hi All,
I'm looking to build a new gaming rig, but this is also going to act as my lab machine at home (Maybe this way I can get work to cover some of the expense ) I'm a data center architect, and I like to do a lot of testing on my own to keep my skills sharp, I use different virtualization solutions in order to run multiple servers/desktops on my rig simultaneously, and I'm also trying to test if some of the new memory caching solutions are viable for gaming (Running games directly from RAM, MWAH HA HA HA! )so this is going to take a good amount of RAM.
I'm looking for recommendations for a motherboard that will support 64GB RAM of DDR3 or DDR4 or more, and still has all of the bells and whistles a gamer needs in his rig (Good Audio, Ethernet, PCIe, USB3.0, you know, literally want it all). Also, hoping to find this in a Z97 if possible, for the Broadwell support. Thanks for your help!
