bcavnaugh, you're right.  The coolers are CM Hyper 212+'s.  They work great.  I had some fun with the Musky Mod.  I should have bought shorter screws.  I had a fun time getting the nuts on with my big paws hitting the sides of the fins! 
Nice output yourself!  I see you on my radar.  Makes me feel the need to build another 4P system, but haven't quite got my wife talked into it yet.  This 4P fever is spreading like wildfire!

I am new to the team so give me a chance to ramp up production. Anyway my 4P socket F is on the way. 

 

Welcome aboard and grats on the milestones everyone!
 
Also, is this worth it?

Would all I need to do be installing the better coolers ?

Wow that is a lot of work.  I may have to wait until after I move cuz I am most likely going across the country.
 
Thanks for the info though!

For folding? Yes!
Also you need to keep in mind it will be quite the heater, I know from experience with the 2P version that it will produce quite a lot of heat. For , the coolers my primary concern will be quietness as it will be an open case system. However I don't think I will install Linux on it right away, but go with Windows Server as it will also be my primary, everyday rig. The chips coming on it, Opteron 8384 clocked at 2.7 GHz will probably be at the limit of -bigadv WU finishing time, but time will tell. Rig is on the way, supposed to be here sometimes next week. For Windows Server 2008 R2 the good news is that it works just fine with regular Win7 x64 drivers.

There's no bigadv for Windows right now, nor does it look like there will be in the near future.  You could run Linux in a VM, but if you were already near the threshold of completing bigadv on time, the VM overhead will probably cause you to miss the deadlines.
