Thankyou for that i probably would make it a 500w ps but the rest is good TY.

Not sure about GPU. You will probably need one, also if you plan on running Windows server or something (Since it's a game server) you might want to go for an i7 instead.

 

Well you could always take a GPU you aren't using, use it to install Windows server or whatever (best for game servers from my expirience) and just set up remote access so you can access the server from your main computer. Then remove the GPU and put it back in your main rig.
