    Any way to get that custom bottle cap at 5:56 ?
     

     
    would love that instead of having to unscrew and drink with the cap against my face

    You can have a look at this: https://www.theserverstore.com/content/supermicro-6027r-e1r12n-superstorage-server
     
    I would recommend you checking for this specific config (you can choose the parts on the right side of the screen)
    2x Xeon-2660 eight core
    32Gb RAM minimum, you can put more if you want  but 32 for game servers, media transcoding, ..... is a minimum I'd say.
    Controller, choose an LSI card. Adaptec is cheap compared ^^".
    You can add hard drives if you want, otherwise they ship the server with the Trays so you can put your own in it. it's compatible with 3.5" drives.
     
    I chose you a 2U server as it's a good size for a home server and you have some good customization options (like putting a graphics card if you want.). You can check their section for desktop servers, but I think the deals they offer is better for the Rack servers.

    Yeah I had the same case before. That was what I feared the most when working inside the case. 
    That case is a "build it, then don't touch it".
     
    I changed for a Cosmos C700P.   The tempered glass side panel is on a hinge and is easily removable, no screws and no chance of it dropping on the floor.
     
    I changed for two reasons: lack of space inside and the hassle of the side / front / top panel blocking the airflow inside the case.

    Have you checked into the used server market first? Yes it's bigger, yes it's louder, yes it's hungrier on power, but honestly you can get really good performance into a used DELL or Supermicro server. I don't personally recommend a used HP server as they tend to use "proprietary" HDD firmware and is a pain to maintain. 
    Depending on where you live, deals can be pretty good too.I myself bought a used Dell R510 server for around 800CAD (dual quad core+hyperthreading, 32Gb RAM and 12x300Gb 15k SAS drive). It's a small spec, but I have many different gaming servers running on it as well as some back for my gaming rig and a media server.
    Building a new PC with the same specs, but less hard drives, would have cost around 1500CAD. It's definitely worth looking.
     
    Another advantage of servers is redundancy. You get the security of redundant power supply, CPU, many drives if put in RAID, .....
     
    For OS I sadly don't have any specific recommendation. I'm more on the hardware side of things hahahahahah

    Is it only me or this video should have been called somehting else?  like something something "dreamhack walkthrough". Mainly because they also talk about the rest of the setup there. 
    BTW I'm part of the volunteer crew for Dreamhack montreal and it's always awesome to be a part of an event on this scale

    Not everyone is that eager to give someone they don't know their contact information.
     
     
    You say you would like to talk to "a few experts". Isn't that easier on an open forum rather than in a private Messenger chat?
    I'm sure that if you post your problem, you'll get all of the experts that you're asking for.
     
    By the way, not everyone on this forum is glued to their seats waiting for someone to ask a question.
    Patience is not passive waiting. Patience is active acceptance of the process required to attain a result.

    Used servers easily the best way to go, fan modding etc can be done to make them quieter. Find one that uses 3.5" disk bays though else you'll be limited in mass storage size or suffering much higher cost for disks.
