I'm having a hard time finding sellers that both have a reasonable price and do not ship from China, so hoping to find someone here with extra on hand. I'd like 16gb minimum but if there is 32 available that may work. They're going in two Tyan S5512 mobos, compatibility list here if I missed something. I have verified PayPal.
Thank you!

I know your frustrations. I went through this a few months ago looking to upgrade my TS440.
I ended up having to go to Amazon and buying new. Went with Timetec Hynix. Technically my system wasn't on their list, but being Amazon, I knew I could return it if it didn't work. But it wasn't exactly "affordable" I suppose.
There's been a recent influx of China motherboards using older Xeon CPUs for gaming, and that potentially has lead to an increased demand for the DDR3 ECC U memory. 😐
Best of luck.
That makes a ton of sense. I was wondering why in the world prices were so inflated other than Covid supply issues. Thanks for the heads up about buying on Amazon, that would be a really painless way to return if necessary.
Yeah. I always try to start on eBay if I can.
You know what else has been hit hard lately? Power supplies.
I'm in the middle of what's basically a white box server build, and finding a PSU was frustrating. Finally got my hands on a Corsair RM650x from Newegg. Sold/Shipped by the egg.
Lol, I haven't shopped at Newegg since 2010. But they had it at a fair retail price, and their upcharge shipping to get it in 2 days wasn't bad either.
I finally got my hands on a 700w thermaltake from best buy of all places. I overpaid but I was just too impatient.
BestBuy locally has been horribly out of stock on PSU.
I know Newegg has gone more market place in recent years, but since I was able to get the Corsair Sold/Shipped by them, I'm okay with it.
Now I just have to measure my clearance and decide on Noctua NH-D9L or NH-U12S coolers.
The 9 is $5 cheaper, but if the 12 fits, I want those because theyre potentially a little quieter.
PM incoming.
What is a reasonable price?
I was able to find some for around $30/8gb which was a little better than I thought but exactly what I was hoping for.
I have a bunch of 4GB sticks pulled from HP servers if you’re interested.
Yeah, definitely. Are they all the same? Could you send me the part# of them if so?
For sure! Let me get a picture of them for you.
