Where do you get a Quad Channel Motherboard?

I saw on NewEgg that they have Quad Channel RAM.
But there's no equivalent catergory filter for motherboards.
I also checked some the hight priced mobos and the ones I found said they support dual channel RAM.

Where do you find a mobo that supports quad channel RAM?
And what CPU would take advantage of thos? Core i7?

You need a time machine to take you to November 2011 when the LGA 2011 and Sandy Bridge SB-E are first released. Otherwise you'll need to break into ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, etc and rip-off their testing rigs.

Unless you want server processors and motherboards.

Here's a few LGA 2011 MOBOs:

ASRock X79 Extreme4

Gigabyte GA-X79A-UD3

ECS X79R-A

Foxconn Quantum Froce X79

I had hoped for 8 DIMM slots vs the lackluster 4 DIMM; here's a hybrid prototype I saw a longtime ago {LGA 1366 + LGA 2011}:
