Hey guys
So im looking to build a new server for home use.
I have a few microservers but unfortunately for what i would like to use them for - they are slightly starting to lack in performance. (Going to sell the microservers) 2 x n40l one with 8gb ram one with 16gb
I ideally need some more CPU usage to host some ded game servers - minecraft etc.
I was probably just going to look at some i7/i5 with 16gb ram. Pop on ESXi and be done with it.
It would generally host a AD, DC and few web servers etc - need enough room & power for a lab environment as well as what i would like to use it for (game servers, sites etc).
Any advice on what i should buy?
