What games would you run on it? Player count? Ect? We need a lot more details than this.

The games that I am planing on playing is Rainbow Six Siege and PUBG. For siege I would go two full teams ending in 10 players and for pubg a total of 20 players max.

Hmm. I don't really know. I would contact the companies and ask them.

This is something I've been trying to get answers on for a while now and not had much luck.

 

i'm currently sat wondering if just a second "gaming" pc or high processing Computer with either duel booted linux or windows operating system would suffice? 

Also would a server addition of windows work better?

Then running the games server software which can mostly be found on steam? (but not all)

 

These are the questions i'm left with, i'm not sure if any of this will work as i don't currently have the resources available as i'm a student to test them out but any incite would be greatly excepted thanks :)
