Im not sure of the size of your installation, but...
one thing i started doing was not having the servers bootup into rio,
and just run in 'console' mode, often headless. for that the integrated
video works fine (especially if you are short a few video cards). Im not
sure about the new fs, but the old one didnt have any sort of graphics
anyways so, of course, an integrated video works there as well.
