I have a 1U Dell server with two Xeons and the thing sounds like a jet engine and I have to put it in my living room (due to wifi wiring issues). I want to find a CPU cooler for the thing that can fit in the 1U chassis. Anyone have any suggestions? If the CPU cooler is slighter to big to fit in the server I can mod the top panel but I would prefer not to. Also I need it to be as cheap as possible as I'm saving for 2x RX 480.

part of 1u chassis is that they just sound like jet engines, you need to get enough air trough them somehow xD

Except for the R610 and R710 series, Dell managed to make magic happen with those puppies.
