I already have an old Dell workstation running our current server and I can tell you right now with the scale of things we do it lags the server lmao. That's why I'm upgrading. I understand the risks of giving out an IP, however I don't have idiot 12 year old friends. We're all adults. I asked about my PC specs, not a lecture on Net Sec. lmao. I have 10+ people all building highly complicated Redstone farms. Each of us with our own 5+ accounts to AFK those farms all the time on separate console clients. The server is his constantly. We can not just have some old dell PC and call it good.

I was looking at that originally but I can't find it anywhere near MSRP so I figured going this would atleast give me a higher base clock speed and i can get it for an okay price enough price

Understandably, but the IP is given and then deleted right after because I am just as cautious about that stuff no worries.

I don't need to. The people who are connecting are people I trust. Half of them live in my town and I have known for years. I get his logic but at the same time it wasn't at all relevant to what I posted lmao

I have a meh GPU for a video out put so I don't need the Igpu, also I figure it gives me the option of hosting more than one easily if I go with a 6-8 Core. It's def overkill but I don't want to have to build another for years basically and the price is getting split between me and my buddy so I can afford to pick a bit bigger parts.

The short of it is I'm looking to build a PC for a Minecraft server for me and my buddys. It'd be consistently 10+ or so of us and we build quite complex farms and stuff so it can be taxing on the server at times. Basically the question becomes. Does the PC Part Picker build I am linking look okay or should I be switching components out for others? I also need help kinda lowering the budget maybe a little I don't mind spending this much. Notes: I have a like old AMD Firepro GPU to just stick in there for a GPU output which is why I went with the KF model, and I also have a 1TB SSD that I will plug in to be able to backup my world into so the M.2 is just for OS (Linux) and the server to run on. PC Part Picker Link Thanks to anyone who replies and offers feedback!

Replying to Hopefully Bump this back up

I'm pretty much at my Wit's end if we're being honest here. I've been having pretty annoying PC stuttering for the past little bit. At first I thought maybe it was some weird 1 off issue. So I just said f it I'm done Fresh Windows install and I'll even get a new M.2 SSD to really seal the deal. Can't have the problems then right! wrong. Fresh Windows install and I instantly start having Blue Screening Problems. I was able to stop those with the help of "sfc /scannow" and repairing any corrupted files. So thankfully that's over. Now my issue is however. Just stuttering for zero reason. I am on a fresh windows 10 install, barely anything installed yet it still continues. It didn't at first. But after awhile it came back and it was just so bad I literally couldn't play my league game. It's like entire system wide stuttering. I get it if I'm watching shows. I can tell cause it will cut out audio and video for little .25 second intervals for 2-3 seconds at a time. I hear it in music. The little blips in the playback you know. The only new hardware I introduced recently was a brand new Glorious Model O mouse. I thought maybe it was that. So I uninstalled it's drivers, software, and plugged my old Razer Deathadder back in. But I can still hear stutters when I listen to music and pay attention to it, and so I'm not even bothering getting into a game. So really at this point I'm unsure of what to do to track this issue down and get it fixed. I checked the .DMP files when I had bluescreen issues but nothing in there. I did see "nvshelper.exe" in my dmp file so possibly a GPU driver issue? ( Pastebin Link to full .dmp File ) All PC Parts Are As Follows: NZXT H710I Intel Core I9-9900K (Stock Speeds) NZXT Kraken X73 Corsair RGB Ram 3200Mhz (32GB 4x8GB Asus Z390-E Gaming MB EVGA Geforce RTX 2070 Super 850 Watt PSU ( Unsure of make if we're being honest but this isn't the issue ) 3TB HDD 500GB Samsung SSD 1TB Samsung M.2 (Brand New Just Bought Friday like stated above) I'm happy to attach any other files and or answer any other questions people have. As for bios questions. I'm on most current bios and all I have changed in Bios is "XMP I" is set for the ram, and the ram frequency was changed from auto to DDR4-3200MHZ along with obviously CPU Fan Speed set to ignore since I am running an AIO.

So I’ve played around with the idea for awhile and I figure it’s finally time I commit and do it. I’m currently hosting on an old dell workstations with an old Xeon and it worked fine at first but as we get farther in to things and build more and more machines, and farms it’s clear we just need something better. So I’m really looking for a computer around $450-$500 USD. Keeping in mind it’s only life task will be to run Minecraft Servers (Possibly more than one at a time), so it doesn’t need to be a just absoulte beast. I admittedly have not been keeping in touch nearly as much as I used to with Modern PC Components so I’m not really sure what best suits this build now adays. I know MC is very single core Intensive and not so much a multi core/thread task. Along with from my understand RAM speeds being super high don’t affect things to much truly, it falls more into how much you can put into it. So if anyone has any idea’s/suggestions for systems please lemme know! It would be very appreciated.

I didn't say they were the best parts. I am saying there is not as much information on the 10700K as there is on the 9900K. I am getting the 9900K purely based on the access to information on the CPU. I do not care that I am getting a chip that is $150 more for like 5% less power. than then 10700K. Again I have the money to spend that extra $150. This is not a budget build and I do not have a budget so I am getting the parts that I want lmao

So just go with the 3200Mhz CL16 over the 3600 CL18? I was already planning on it because the price is just such a huge difference for a 400Mhz difference with a higher latency aswell lmao

I really get it. Like you want me to save my money get the better CPU etc. I am already set on these parts and I am not going AMD. The post was about ram Latency speeds mattering on an Intel based system with a 9900k, and a Asus Strix Z390-E board. I have had a job throughout all of Covid and for the past year. Pay little rent and save a lot of my money. I have the money to burn on the exact parts that I want lmao.

The 10700K has a much higher TDP 30W's more than the 9900K along with I have already gotten the Board, so I would have to return the board to get an LGA 1200 Socket board. I definitly thought about the 10700K but there's just more info out on the 9900K and I was already kinda set on it. Along with I am an Intel die hard so I wouldn't get an AMD CPU if we're being 100% honest. So like will the ram CL speeds matter much on an intel based system?

I am buying soon. Why?

Ram will be used with an Intel Core I9-9900K and an Asus Strix Z390-E motherboard. So the question is. CL18 3600 MHz Ram 32GB's 8GBx4 Config or CL16 3200MHz 32GB's 8GBx4 Config. Will I really notice the difference in performance dropping down my speed 400 to utilize that CL16 or should I just stick with the 3600. I know this is a much bigger debate on AMD based systems and I think it matters a bit less on Intel platforms but none the less wanted to ask.
