@onf Having them pointed towards the motherboard is intentional. It's to help cool the VRMs (voltage regulation modules) as well as help make it lower profile. Tower coolers can cool more effectively but don't force air over the VRMs, and take up more space.
If the CPU cooler doesn't cool the VRMs directly, having more case airflow can make up for that, but if the computer was built on the cheap, it's easier to have a low profile cooler and one or two case fans to circulate air.
@onf that is weird.
@onf neat!
Yeah, old server hardware can be really weird.
The ram being ecc is an interesting addition, but I'm not sure how much of an impact it'll have on performance or function, if at all.
@onf super high efficiency. Some servers are low load but high uptime. Save money on electricity by making them extremely efficient.
