Pre-built gaming server?

[DarkSmilee]

Hey guys 

 

So if been looking around on this website but I only found own creations. Are there some good pre-built servers for home? What I'm looking for 

 

- Compact the smaller the better 

- Low power cost 

- at least 16gb ram

- under 1000€ if possible

 

What I wanna do with this server is running a minecraft server, other gaming servers, website, other projects. I won't run all of those things together. And for those wondering why I don't wanna build it my own it's just because I don't know how to build it never build a pc

 

Please also note I'm from Europe so if I could get some European links would be wonderful 

 

Thnx 

David

You can do this, I have a Dell Optiplex 990 sitting under my desk doing this actually, keep in mind, some game servers benefit from high single core speed. Like Minecraft.

Also forgot to ask/mention the only real difference between servers and general computing is the OS. As the software is what is actually serving the services. So what OS are you going to be using?

If you want something new, look at the entry level options from HPE and Dell.

 

The HPE Microserver Gen10 with quad core and 16GB is well under a grand. ML10 and ML30 servers should also fit.

Dell Poweredge T-series also has entry level options in that price bracket.
