[MrKino]

Hey guys im ordering parts for my original pc which cost 1500 so im uncomfortable leave the gaming one 24/7 hower im starting community where i need to run team speak dedicated game server for cheap as possbile i already have a old laptop if i can make use of that

 

[Rhezner]

as long as the temps are ok you can leave your main one running 24/7.

im a bit cofused about your question but i can build you a cheap computer for a temspeak server on pcpartpicker.com

 

[Saberus]

It's fine to leave a PC idle or under a mild load 24/7 as long as the cooling can keep up.

 

[WildCard999]

If the laptop is good enough to run the server then use that for team speak and then use that 1500 to make yourself a awesome gaming system.

here is a small PC that will be very capable of running a temspeak server. You would probably want to put linux on it for a server.

or you could just use your laptop.

You could also use your laptop too. What are the specs?

You could also rent the server.

Teamspeak will never ever use 1 GB of RAM unless you have a huge server, like HUGE.

 

[Rhezner]

that is the minimum reccomended so i just put 8 in there just in case it is a huge server and for the OS and other things

 

[MrKino]

Wowo i didnt excpet hugw reply like anyway my laptop specs its msi 2 gb ram i3 hd 5460 something like that so will this be able or should i just get the pc you guys listed with 8gb of ram

A lot of people host servers with very little RAM, usually under 1 GB.

Just use Linux, Ubuntu is a good example.

 

[MrKino]

Also will thw temps on the pc with 8gb going to be high and will it be loud?

That laptop should be good enough. Just make sure you have at least 100 GB of HDD space.

 

[MrKino]

I have 300gb available

 

[IAmTheTofu]

I have 300gb available

Try to clear the laptops hard drive if you can, and reinstall the OS. It's best to do that, as the server will run faster with a fresh copy of Windows/Linux.

 

[MrKino]

Ok and how many people my laptop can handle on teamspeak also which is better for hosting linux or ubuntu or windows i dont care which is harder i just wsnt the better

 

[WildCard999]

Well since you laptop is good enough for the team speak server now you can use all 1500 for a new system. For that much you might be able to swing i5 and a GTX 980ti

 

[Rhezner]

ubuntu is a version of linux it is a linux distro

Nice build especially since you can always upgrade to SLI. The only thing I feel that should be changed is that Xeon to a K series i5 since it's a unlocked MB plus the capabilities of that CM 212 will be better off overclocking down the road if needed. But for the money it's still an excellent build, +1.

 

[Rhezner]

i think you would have to spend quite a bit on cooling to get a decent overclock on the 4690k. The xeon has hyperthreading. I would personally take it over the 4690k.

 

[MrKino]

Hey guys on amason i mangrd to fit the i7 4790k in the budgrt

 

[FreshPineApples]

Hey guys on amason i mangrd to fit the i7 4790k in the budgrt

Unless you are overclocking there is no need for an i7 over the xeon

this

you dont even need an aftermarket cooler for the xeon.
