Hi, need to put together a cheap home server PC to host a Teamspeak 3 server and host a small cloud server for myself to access from school and stuff. I want to spend as little as possible on it. I already have a 250W PSU i could use. Need 250GB+ storage from it. Also Im from UK so please post the part list from UK PC part picker :) Thanks.

Heres a rough list. refine/delete as appropriate.

 

-AMD Phenom dual core

-2 or 4 Gbs of RAM, make your choice.

-500gb Western Digital Blue HDD or similar

-MSI 760GM Mobo.

Just a TS3 and a cloud server?

 

I would look at what type of cloud server you want to use and plan your build around that.

Not sure how expensive HP Microservers (N40L/N54L) are in UK...but I grabbed myself one for 90 Pounds/$150

 

They have a nice small footprint, are quiet and are very reasonably priced

 Coolermaster HAF 932 | Intel i7 4770k  | Corsair H100i | 16GB 1600Mhz Corsair Vengeance | PowerColor 7970 | Asus Sabertooth Z87 | Corsair HX650 | Dell U2713HM , U2312HM


Samsung 840 Pro 128gb|  9tb Storage |  CMStorm Quickfire rapid (Cherry Blue) | SteelSeries Sensei RAW | SteelSeries Siberia | Logitech G51| Xonar DX| Sennheiser HD518|

I'd personally just use an older computer that's lying around, in my opinion one of the best machines you can use, which you can get stupid cheap on ex-lease, are those IBM thinkcentres.  First gen i5, 4gigs of RAM, generally a 160GB HDD but storage is cheap, etc etc for around 20 bucks.
