I'm long overdue to build out a new x86/x64 system to run (primarily) OpenIndiana on, and I looking for comments and suggestions from others who have recently done the same.

I have already reviewed our HCL here:

But I fear it is dated, as the last update was almost a year ago.

I'm planning to run an Intel CPU due to some issues with another OS, and I need it to handle at least 32 Gb of ram. This is for me at $HOME, but I run a lot of zones + virtualization via VirtualBox.

Size - I own a small collection of old Sun Ultra 20 cases that I like to use, so I am looking for an ATX sized board.

If it matters, I typically always run an NVIDIA frame buffer as they seem to be the path of least resistance and always have nice *Solaris drivers.

Thanks for any comments,

Jerry
