Hello folks,
I've finally decided on my hardware. Special thanks to jgreco for starting the light in the dark :)
MOB:
Supermicro X9SCL
CPU:
Xeon E3-1230v2
RAM:
Kingston 8Gb DDR3, 1600MHz, ECC
HDD:
WD Green 3TB
Case:
Fractal Design Define Mini
I do not made my mind on PSU yet, I will use some sort of 400w PSU from home for a month.
I will buy 5 more WD greens, let's say one per month, in the future + RAM sticks when I will need them.
I have one question regards the Supermicro mini, it could be adresse to jgreco or anyone who knows the answer:
How can I upgrade the BIOS if my CPU will not be supported until the upgrade?

BIOS rev. 2.0 or above is needed to support new E3-1200 v2 CPUs, which supports PCI-E 3.0 & DDR3 1600.
How can I upgrade the BIOS if my CPU will not be supported until the upgrade?
