I need a starting list of parts for a server that meets the following specifications:

  • About $500, maybe more if it's worth it
  • More cores the better,  lower clock speed isn't an issue
  • 8Gbs of quality ram in (preferably a 2x4 pack)
  • Integrated graphics would be great or just a cheap graphics card
  • The motherboard just has to be good quality but nothing fancy
  • An 64Gb SSD  (all I need it for is linux and a few programs)
  • The power supply should have some extra headroom and if it's quiet that's a plus
  • The case has to have good airflow because it'll be on days at a time
  • A better CPU cooler would also be a nice addition if it fits in the budget 

Thanks in advance for any help.

 

P.S. This is a meant for an rtmp media server, not any sort of file server.
