Hi guys! I finally decided to build my first machine from the ground up, and I have decided to build a small home server. The server will be used for file sharing, Plex streaming (and possibly some transcoding) and maybe for some virtualisation.
This is the component list so far:
Case: Bitfenix Prodigy
Motherboard: Asus H81I-PLUS Motherboard (Socket 1150, Intel H81, DDR3, S-ATA 600, Mini ITX, PCI Express 2.0, HDMI, USB 3.0)
CPU: Intel Pentium G3220 Dual Core
RAM: G-Skill 4GB Ripjaws X DDR3 1600 Dual Kit - Red
PSU: Corsair Builder Series CX 430 Watt ATX/EPS 80 PLUS Bronze
Thermal paste: Arctic Cooling MX-4 4g
I already have a few hard drives, so for now I can use those. The OS is going to be some version of Linux at first.
So here are my questions:
1. Have I forgotten something?
2. How does the build look? Should I replace some components with others?
3. Are all components compatible?
Thanks!
