Posted March 28, 2014 An AMD Athlon 7750 with 4GB, and 64-bit Windows 7 EDIT: It is a FTB Monster Server, with 197 mods Gonna need an upgrade. With all that extra stuff installed it'll chew up ram.

Posted March 28, 2014 5 people all in local network Should be plenty for what you are planning. There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Posted March 28, 2014 It keeps getting a message saying "can't keep up did the system time change" What has high usage?

Posted March 28, 2014 It keeps getting a message saying "can't keep up did the system time change" Well I may have been wrong, you are putting to much stress on the CPU and the server is telling you there is not enough resources, limit your self as to what else you have running while you run the server There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Posted March 28, 2014 Author What has high usage? Look in resource manager The computer is sitting between 70-90% CPU load with 2.95GB with one player on the server Well I may have been wrong, you are putting to much stress on the CPU and the server is telling you there is not enough resources, limit your self as to what else you have running while you run the server The minecraft server is the only thing running, it has 3GB of RAM allocated to it to allows windows 1GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got that message before when absolutely hammering on it like when I accidentally set off 15000 TNT (which screwed it up and I had to MCedit it out cause the server would keep crashing) and while force generating world Were you doing anything intensive on it? 2600k@4.5GHz ~ H100 ~ Asus P8Z68V-pro gen3 ~ Kingston HyperX 16GB 1600 ~ Sapphire VaporX 7950 ~ Gigabyte DCU 5770 ~ Kingston 128GB HyperX ~ WD black 2TBx2 ~ WD red 4TB ~ Hauppauge HVR2200 ~ Asus BR drive ~ RAT7 ~ Unicomp model-M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 28, 2014 There is an ME system, item ducts and a quarry, with lots more, but those are the laggy things And the cpu just sits at high usage the whole time? Even if it's empty? I'm assuming the one person you had on was yourself on the same computer? 2600k@4.5GHz ~ H100 ~ Asus P8Z68V-pro gen3 ~ Kingston HyperX 16GB 1600 ~ Sapphire VaporX 7950 ~ Gigabyte DCU 5770 ~ Kingston 128GB HyperX ~ WD black 2TBx2 ~ WD red 4TB ~ Hauppauge HVR2200 ~ Asus BR drive ~ RAT7 ~ Unicomp model-M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the CPU is like that when no one is on the server, I think it is because the mods run in the background when no one is on and Yes I am the one on it but not on the same PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 3570k and extra ram would do far better.

I would but that is the PC I am using and I don't keep it on all the time, the current one is dedicated to being on all the time and just for the server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 28, 2014 I would but that is the PC I am using and I don't keep it on all the time, the current one is dedicated to being on all the time and just for the server Ahh yeah fair enough. Depending on how you normally use your PC it could handle both at once, but if you want the server up 24/7 then that doesn't really matter anyway. Can you afford to pay for hosting? 2600k@4.5GHz ~ H100 ~ Asus P8Z68V-pro gen3 ~ Kingston HyperX 16GB 1600 ~ Sapphire VaporX 7950 ~ Gigabyte DCU 5770 ~ Kingston 128GB HyperX ~ WD black 2TBx2 ~ WD red 4TB ~ Hauppauge HVR2200 ~ Asus BR drive ~ RAT7 ~ Unicomp model-M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you afford to pay for hosting? I would rather own the computer, but thanks for the suggestion, I may just have to wait and at some point upgrade my personal PC to a 4th gen Intel and make my old one the server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 28, 2014 On my server I use linux and allocate 1.5GB of RAM and it runs great for 3 people. (FTB Mindcrack pack) I use a Athlon x2 and 2gb of RAM Linux "nerd".
