Looks quite expensive. You should wait until the Anniversary 2.0 guide is out.

You’re not going to need Noctua fans. The arctics are mighty quiet. Also the EVGA CLCs are overkill for those Xeons. Is the DDR3 RAM that you have ECC? If not, you’re going to want ECC.

That, and the EVGA CLC’s do not fit narrow ILM.

Wow… is this being listed anywhere yet?
