If you look at it, it says this (which are the important things for Hyper-V and Exchange 2007): * This processor supports Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (EM64T) * This processor supports Intel Virtualization Technology * This processor supports Execute Disable Bit capability Any processor you pick needs to have those three things listed. Here is a pretty good MB that supports 16 GB: http://www.ewiz.com/detail.php?name=MB-MAXIM2F Regards, Michael B.

I didn't keep anything about the recent thread (Michael I think) about buying 64-bit white box hardware other than it was e-wiz.com. Isn't there a specific CPU spec to look for to take advantage of some features -VM or Exchange I think, I forget this minute. I'm looking for a 64-bit system but CPU speed doesn't matter as much as 16GB RAM capability..
