Unloading a bunch of stuff I no longer need, just looking to get rid of it reasonably quick so I checked the average prices on ebay and reduced it even further. Prices do not include shipping. Here's what I got:

128GB (16x8GB) Hynix DDR3 ECC memory - 40 per module, 600 for all 16 - SOLD
4 x HP 448397-B21 DDR ConnectX infiniband cards - 20 per card / 60 for all 4 - SOLD
3 x Quad port intel 1000 PT nics (IBM PN:39Y6138) - 35 per card / 90 for all 3
3 x Broadcom BCM5719 quad port nics (brackets are not attached but will throw them in - have both half and full height) - 50 per card - 2 LEFT
2 x Intel gigabit CT nic (one FH, one HH bracket) - 10 per card / 15 for both
Quad/dual/single port brackets - make offer
17 x Mellanox 2M CX4 to QSFP infiniband cable - 20 per cable - 14 LEFT
3 x Gore 8M CX4 to CX4 infiniband cable - 10 per cable / 20 for all 3

Dang good price on those nic's jump on them quick STH'ers, if you're in the GigE market pretty hard to beat if you need some decent nic density.

I'm pretty sure both Intel PT and Broadcom 5719 nics (least I know the 5709 nics were supported) are on the VMware HCL for networking devices.

Yes they both worked just fine out of the box in ESXi5. The broadcoms are OEM nics that came out of poweredge R810's/R820's
