Hello,
I currently have the following machine :
i7 4790k
Asus Maximus Gene VII Micro ATX MB
16GB DDR3 Ram
512GB Samsung Pro 240 SSD
2 x 500GB HDD's
Corsair CX750
GTX h100i - Cooler
GTX 660 Asus GPU.
Currently I have this setup as my home server however I didn't want to run it 24/7 because I have a feeling it's very power hungry and is going to cost me a bomb to run all the time. Anyone have a clue on how all the wattage to cost is worked out for electricity ?
I was having a think and was planning on possibly building a home server for plex to run / storage (Maybe a EXSI Host with some vm's running)
I have the following :
128GB SSD - Going to use for the OS
4GB of DDr3 Ram (possibly alittle more can't remember)
1TB Drive x 2
What would the best cpu / case and psu be for building a nice little home server / media server. I really want to be able to stream 1080p and have this running 24/7 so low power is going to be key with low noise.
Suggestions appreciated on both parts..
