Building a Small Business Server

[johnkerry]

This computer will be pretty much on all day in an open room. It will be sitting next to another desktop server which runs FTP. This build will handle scheduling for 3 locations and will be in use during business hours mainly. The software it is running is memory intensive.

Here is a link to the build in newegg.

My main concerns are the power supply and motherboard.


Thank you in advance.

Is the psu sufficient? Or do I need more power? Is it reliable?

You should be good to go. Antec is one of the better power supply manufacturers and that PSU should be more than enough for your purposes.

Thanks for the reply I ended up buying all of the parts.

Should I upgrade the heatsink? I will not be overclocking but the computer will be on 24/7. Not sure how good the stock heatsink is.

That's up to you. If the stock one is too noisy, you may want to, but my all purpose system is on 24/7 and it's running with the stock HSF.
