I've got wholesale contacts, but I was hoping to make use of this spare
chip and RAM floating about. Diff would be around $100, so only kinda
worth it.

It might be worth looking at Intel Atom processor boards or similar, there are plenty of very low power boards around now. If you can find something that suits you will recoup the cost of the new processor and RAM with much reduced electricity consumption, I believe around 10 times less.

There's been a few threads recently about low power boards. eg this thread
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=411819+0+/usr/local/www/db/text/2010/freebsd-questions/20101128.freebsd-questions

suggests this board

http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/ATOM/ICH9/X7SPE.cfm?typ=H&IPMI=Y
which looks like it covers what you want.
