What I'm running right now: 

ASUS M4N82 Deluxe
AMD Phenom II X3 720
Kingston 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) ECC Unbuffered 
Desktop Memory Model KVR800D2E6K2/4G - Retail51195154 (N82E16820134936) 

All from Newegg and appear to still be available.

There's the platform. I added 2x SuperMicro AOC-USAS-L8i to control the drives. 
(there is a bug in the driver for these LSI based cards that causes I/O 
stuttering under load. Seems to only happen with XvM loaded. I submitted a bug 
report on it, but I haven't heard anything else about it.) 

I also added an Intel Gigabit ethernet card. The onboard port seems to work, 
but I had read that the Intel driver was quite good so I decided it was worth a 
few extra bucks. 

If you aren't using too many drives, the onboard SATA ports might get you taken 
care of. It's all about what you want to do.
