    The memory riser does exactly what it says, similar to a PCI RAM Drive.

    It just moves the ram vertically to get more space for PCI slots, the board is designed for a server.

    So the riser card will take 24GB RAM. Thats 12 Slots? Or is there such a thing as a 4GB RAM module?

    Normal Xeons won't work in a four way motherboard, you need Xeon MPs.

    I also would be interested in a pair of Xeons if they're £12 each.
