-Asus PC-DL Deluxe
-2x 2,4Ghz LV Xeon/512Kb/533fsb (should hit 3,2Ghz easily)
-460W NMB PSU

I'll put this in my old case with

-1Gb (2x512Mb) PC3200 Transcend RAM
-2x Maxtor DM9+ SATA 120Gb (Will be RAID 1) for data
-ICP-Vortex U160 HW SCSI Raid controller w. 128Mb cache
-2x Hitachi 73LZX 10Krpm U160 SCSI disks (RAID 0) for OS
-LG 8x DL-DVDRW
-Geforce FX5900Ultra 256Mb VIVO
-misc stuff...

Got the board and xeons dirt cheap, so I couldn't resist :p
