Home Server Build (Linux)

Ryan_199 · Oct 1, 2016

I would like to run my websites off of a built computer. I already have a gaming pc but want one dedicated for my sites. I built something out but I'm not sure how good it is. I want to stay between $300-400. Any ideas or opinions?

use two 4gb sticks of ram instead of 1 8gb stick. You will get some modest performance boosts out of dual channel.
Good build though.

What distro do you plan on running?

I'm probably going to run CentOS. Is the i3 overkill?

I think the i3 is a good fit for a home server. It offers good bang for the buck and runs cool.

The price is just a bit high. Do you think a pentium or celeron would do the same?

i3 6100 will shave about $30 off the price with a Gigabyte GA-B150M-DS3H Mobo shaving a few more bucks off.
