Hello, I am currently looking into servers for a network that I am creating. I need these servers to power some small Minecraft servers. And I may use these servers for hosting.

The part list that I have come up so far

http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/r9vMK8 (Some of the prices I found on newegg UK)

What do you think of this part selection? Also If you would change something what would you change?

this system might be better because it has 8 real cores, but you will need to grab a GPU if you want to get video out of it.

Would the AMD be better, the Xeon is a server grade CPU and has support for ECC memory and Minecraft needs fewer better cores. But as this is for hosting would it need more cores?
