I was inspired by Linus his video on 8 core server budget gaming machine and I bought 2 servers for a steal 2$ for 2 servers 16 and 28gb ram ;)

 

But there is a problem when I buy a psu cuz this one is loud as hell how can I know it's powerful enough ? What are the requiremnts for the psu to be able to run the system ?

You can open up the rack and see, how many watts current PSU(s) can output.

Though server power supplies are almost never really quiet, they are not designed for quiet operation, rather moving tons of air.

 

Also server power supplies use different form factor, depending on the case size (1U, 2U, 4U).

What are the server model numbers? If they are rack mount server units there could be very few options out there without modding them.
