Intel Xeon E3-1230 (offers PCIe 3.0 and Hyperthreading) $250

keep everything else

You need a cooler for CPU. Suggest CoolerMaster Hyper 212EVO. You need low profile RAM (to avoid risk of clash with cooler) Crucial Ballistic Sport, GSKill Ares are suitable. Corsair also do low profile versions. As to case, so much is personal preference. As long as it's a good quality Mid-tower ATX case, it will do. CoolerMaster (not the cheap ones), Fractal Design Refine 4 is quiet, Antec and Corsair are pretty good. I like the Corsair Carbide 400R/500R, very nice, but not cheap. The best way with cases is pick a couple you like the look of, and we'll tell you if one is markedly better.
You don't need anything like that power supply. I will check the power requirements, for that Quadro, but I EXPECT you need around 500 or 550w. The important thing is to get the best quality, you can afford. I will come back, to you, to confirm required wattage.

Keep in mind that Xeon's can't be overclocked.



The Hyper 212 Evo requires the socket LGA 2011 retention bracket before it can be used. The Noctua D14 that I linked to only includes parts for LGA 2011.

yes thanks malbluff im cheking the cooler, for ram i think i go for GSKILL, i watched the corsair case it a good option looks good, i gonna follor your advice, i gonna check some case and i gonna post to have an opinion
for the power supply gonna check also the requirements good point, i think the quadro's total board power is 142.6W
well i'll keep posting

With the Quadro at 143w, a 500w power supply will be more than adequate, in fact you could go a bit lower. Personally, I like to have a decent bit in hand, without going silly, and you will find there are several good quality offerings in the low/mid 500's, from Seasonic, XFX, Antec, BeQuiet, that may suit nicely. For your type of work, you need a good quality PSU. The Seasonic X series is probably the best, if a little pricey.
