Good morning chaps !

I've been away from the forums a long time.

I would love some help as my last purchase was a 2600k processor in 2011.


I have a HP microserver in my lounge - it is a good size but it is very weak.

I would like to build a PC about the same size. - I only have 6 requirements, and would like to do this without blowing all the bucks in the jar.

64Gb ram (socket 1151?)
Quad Core CPU (any)
Supports VMware ESXi (this might be difficult!)
Small form factor (same as an HP microserver size)
4 sata ports + raid 1
2 network ports onboard
onboard graphics

ASROCK and i5? what case? 16gig sticks? 4 slots for ram?

any help would be extremely welcome!

I think due to the fact that the 16 gig sticks of ddr 4 require a second mortgage

Ill need to go full size Mobo with 8 slots of 8 gig.

So that make that easy - but can these still fit in low profile cases?
