Hey all, looking to finish off my last few details.
I currently have:
6x Seagate BarraCuda Pro ST6000DM004 6TB 7200 RPM 256MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drives
Rosewill RSV-L4500 - Server Case 4U, 15 x Internal Bays (already replaced the all on fans with 4 pin Noctua fans)
AsRock Rack EP2C602-2L+/D16 motherboard (found the mobo and case combo and couldn't pass it up)
2x Noctua NH-L9x65, 65mm Premium Low-Profile CPU Cooler
My questions today are about the CPU and the RAM.
CPU as it is dual and I will never utilize most of its potential, I was hoping to stay fairly cheap maybe $75-100 per max. A friend sent me this excel sheet and it is amazing, thanks to whomever made it.

My thought process was to pretty much focus on the x5-2600 v2 series, (the 1600 v2 series were all 130W and more expensive). At least what I see, it looks like the most bang for the buck. So here are the CPUs I think are best, let me know what you think. I was also wondering if WATT usage is noticeable or doesnt really make a difference, since this would be on 24/7? Should I consider a 130W CPU in the long run it wont add that much cost to run through out the entire year?

RAMM
The board has 16 slots for RDIMM. I prefer to keep with 16G chips and not use that many slots. I see the zfs raid calculator says I will have between 30-32TB so I really only need 32G of RAMM, but I will probably end up with 64G maybe 96G if I really feel spendy.

Has anyone heard of Hynix? is it real name brand or some china knock off? (never seen it in gaming world RAMM)
