SO i have a Xeon E3 1226 Vs 1151 socket cpu for my home server. I am going to be chucking it into a 2U rack. Are their specific motherboards i should be looking at for 24/7 use ?

Looking at a couple of VM's and nothing too mental.
 
I built a server for one of my customers in 2013 using an ASUS Workstation class board, with a Xeon E3-1220 v3 in it. It's still running today and has never been off for anything more than power outages and restarting for updates.

It hosts their data on around 4TB of storage, Exchange server and a few web and database applications.
