Re: Ratdude's 3U Server Shenanigans
Made some more purchases:

That should quiet up the coolers while still providing excellent air flow when needed
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kingston-2GB...72.m2749.l2649
Bought 6 2GB PC3200 sticks for $5 a pop shipped. 4 for the server, 2 for spares (since this will be system #4 for me that is running such RAM). Say what you want about kingston, but the four that didn't get nuked in storage run great in my wife's rig (which is also socket 940 with Opteron X2 285's). I'll happily buy more of those for peanuts.
Now I'm waiting on PCBs to come in...
