I have been asked for suggestions on a Dual Quad Core build for modeling work. I need suggestinos for motherboards, chips, and memory risers as the machine will need about 32 gig of RAM. Advice will be greatly appreciated as most of my experience comes from a few years ago.

In about a month or so the new Intel chips will be available. If you want the best then wait and get a good boost over what available right now.
