Workstation build

I have the need for a workstation, but nothing as powerful or expensive as the Pro. 

 

I'm thinking of something using an intel C2xx based motherboard with an E3 and a low medium Quadro or Fire card, or equivalent consumer cards. 

 

Is this type of build currently possible?

 

Thanks Much

The ECC Ram is not needed specifically at the moment, but thought I'd try to kill two birds with one stone as the machine will probably be repurposed in a couple of years as a FreeNAS box.

 

I suppose a Q87 based board might also work, though the hardware management isn't as robust, and no ECC support at all.
