The Little Guy Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Any computer that you can buy today can run a server, so as long it is a working machine, it should get the job done. It also depends on how many people you will be accessing this server, and how well your code is codded. You will want to make sure that you have a good internet connection as well, and for a server don't go wireless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roopurt18 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 I could be wrong, but won't you take a performance hit with only three sticks of RAM? All mobos these days support dual-channel, which requires a pair of identical sticks of RAM per channel. So with three sticks you'll have a pair of DIMMs running in dual-channel and then an odd stick running normally (and at lower performance than the pair in dual-channel). Again, I could be wrong. But at only $35 why not get a fourth stick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serverman Posted May 19, 2008 Author Share Posted May 19, 2008 Hmm i didn't know that and yeah why not ill go with one more stick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
