VT-x does matter. L KVM will not work without it, although Virtual Box
may.   Sooner or later you may want to experiment with the cloud
solutions (openstack, eucalyptus etc.); VT-x is a must.

Servers have more fans with higher volume flow than a desktop, yes it
will be louder.  Until you get the unit in your hand, it is hard to
say whether the noise level would be acceptable to your decibel
tolerance.
