8 GB RAM sticks for servers ECC in the UK are very competitive (for me 
any way) £75 a stick (inc VAT) . 8GB sticks of non ECC seemed to be much 
more (if you could find them) when I was looking. a quick google seem to 
say RAM is much cheaper now though then last month. just don't buy Hard 
disks if you can manage without them for the next 6-9 months.

  I have been buying the intel dual processor S5520HC motherboards, with 
12 RAM slots for £250ish . May be overkill for you, but for the company 
I work for they are great. plugin module for IPMI as well.
