Hey,
I'm thinking of start hosting my own server and in that case buy and build my own PC server... I'm planning to run it on Windows Server 2008(64bit).
I've searched round a bit and I've put this together so far:
Power: Fractal Design Integra R2 500W 80+ Bronze
RAM: Corsair 16GB (2x8192MB) CL10 1600Mhz VENGEANCE LP DDR3
Harddrive: SSD 120GB Intel 330 Reseller 2.5
Motherboard: ASRock B75M-DGS mATX [Link (Swedish website but I think you may understand even so)]
Processing: Intel Core i3 3220 3,3Ghz 55W Dual Core [Link]
All this will cost me around 400 Euro. [EDIT, misstyped 300 instead of 400]
I want the computer as "energy saving" as possible to lower the electricity bill. I wonder if the processor is enough? I mean, is the 3.3Ghz Dual Core enough to host a server with a large map and around 100 players?
What do you think? Is the PC specs good or should I change anything? The server must be free from lagg.
