I looked into this when I was designing my new system.  What you want is
beyond my budget but I was pointed towards Tyan boards.  I drooled over
their quad opteron with 8 GB RAM per CPU.  Of course, each CPU could be
dual or quad (when available) core.  It would run the amd64 port of
Etch.

In the end, since I was building a personal box, I couldn't afford to go
Opteron so I went with Asus board with Athlon.
