I'll have to get back to you on the server pc. However, for the unlimited budget gaming pc I'd build something like this:

If that seems excessive (which I know it is) then this may be more realistic (basically same components without going way over the top in some areas):

And for those who are minimalists this is the most bang for the buck:

I'd personally rent a VPS if you're going to use it as a server for you and your friend to play on.
