    does it have USB 3.0? what about SATA 6/gb?

    You are purchasing a spanking new baby, these components will come into play when you commit to future upgrades.

    Also it would be helpful if you tell us on how you will use this. This might suffice for standalone workstations, but if you plan to connect this to a bigger network of computers with shared data your setup is not enough.

    Also your choice of monitors, should be able to preview pixel per pixel FULL HD.

    and at the same time do you intend to use AJA/Blackmagic cards with this?

    Hope these might help
