Well, aside from a small fsb overclock, or forcing the turbo full on, Xeons are locked chips and can't be overclocked anyhow. Personally, I wouldn't recommend using a passive cooler. In order to keep that 135w chip cool under loads, having a fan on them would be a good idea. Plus, any passive heat sink capable of keeping those chips cool is going to be both expensive and very large.
I don't know what you're doing that you need two processors that run two grand each, and run a total of 32 threads, but I'd certainly want to protect my investment if I was shelling out that kind of money.
