Pretty siked out with a new motherboard, CPU and fan that I ordered.

GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+ ATX rev. 4.1 $69.00 NEW
AMD FX-8350 Black Edition Vishera 8-Core 4.0GHz 4.2 (turbo mode) $169.00 NEW
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 120mm Fan $28.00 NEW

This will allow me to take my present main system with a AMD quad CPU and make it a dedicated security system and enable it to handle anything BI has to give it. Also allowing me to increase the resolution of recorded video for 5 cameras without burning 100% during recordings. I eventually will install a fluid radiator CPU cooler, solid state hard drive, and another R9 Radeon video board to go SLI on the new board.
 
Note that AMD is not a great choice for a 24/7 NVR...they are not very power efficient.

I agree very much so! My electric bill is proof of that! AMD sucks for a 24/7 camera system! My next puter is without a doubt intel!
