Minecraft Server Build

[rhandyrhoads]

A dedicated minecraft server with access to all the internet. Possibility of 50 people. How does this sound. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/DB4C

Dont think that will run it.

 

[camohanna]

A Xeon core will work better.

I suggest this. Also, dont bother with a big moniter as this computer is only for hosting the server?

any monitor reccomendation

 

[camohanna]

Just get a cheap, cheap one. Because all you need is to turn the computer on an leave it running, probably with the monitor turned off anyway.

This one is $60 off now - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824009314&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

any monitor reccomendation

When I've to manage college's server I do it using a remote desktop so I don't have a monitor where the machine is, just carried one when I turned it on for the first time.

Why do you need a card to run a server?
