As far as the server specs requirement, IL2 didn't take much of a machine to provide a nice smooth environment (90 players), but in Cliffs of Dover, I would only expect it be a much better machine. With 20x the physics of IL2 alone, I would think CPU power would have to be fairly good for a dedicated machine in the new sim. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Right now I am leaning towards a dual 1156 socket motherboard. Starting out with i7 950's and moving up to hexcore or xeon if need be. Not dead set on the solution yet, still waiting for feedback here and over at overclocking.net

You mean 1366. I would suggest waiting for the 1155 socket to sort its problems or some news about the new Bulldozer which are rumored to be announced this month and released in Q2.

Even i5 2500k beats that i7 950, not to mention its price.
