I use an Asus P9X79 Pro with an I7-3930k.
It has the standard 6 Intel SATA ports (two of those are 6Gb/s, the other 4 are 3Gb/s, as is standard for an X79 board). It also has 2 more 6Gb/s SATA ports, using a Marvell controller.

For the RAM, I'd suggest a quad channel kit rather than the dual channel you specified. It may not make a huge difference in practice. I gave the DDR3-2400 frequency a miss; stayed with the DDR3-2133 (GSkill F3-17000CL9Q-16GBZH, from the Qualified list for the board). Supposedly the returns are rapidly diminishing above DDR3-1600. The prices rise rapidly above DDR3-2133.
Power supply? I don't own this one, but it's very popular:
HX Series HX750 Power Supply
You'd want something larger if you ever wished to add a second 7970 in Crossfire, though.
I don't think any LGA2011 boards come with on board graphics . He has a i7-3930K processor.
They do not.....I was just saying on-chip/board graphics have some advantages. But no, Socket 2011 has none of that.
so you mean that it asus pro P9X79 doesn't come with graphics card
what is the difference betwenn the sockets
