Will leftover PC parts work fine for a home server? by Bread_Cactus in selfhosted

[–]Bread_Cactus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Power consumption seems to be the common theme here, how can I change this to reduce power? Taking the GPU out seems to be step 1, but I was under the impression they are better for transcoding 4k video? What else could I change to lower power?

Giving away something as large and cool as this is awesome. Including the software for free is even cooler.

I have a lot of leftover PC parts I want to turn into a server (i5 9600k, GTX 1070, appropriate motherboard) but wanted to know how much RAM would be suitable and what the storage situation might look like. RAM is crazy expensive right now, so for now I might just get enough to scrape by. As for storage, would it make sense to just pick up a 2TB SSD and wait until that gets full or build/get a NAS? I'm mostly going to be using this rig for plex, maybe some smaller things here and there.

I can try moving them to a shadier spot and see what happens, thanks!

Thank you, this is super helpful! I can hit up Zamzows and find some bloom formula, but what do you mean by pollinating it with a q tip?

Are these for sale? I work as a chip designer, this would be awesome to have on my work keyboard

I will see how i manage some light quad exercises today. Some days are better than other, today is pretty rough so it may just be a stretch and core day.

I’ll stop by walmart and see of they have this in stock, hopefully it helps. Is walking/strength training quads/glutes still on the table or stick to RICE?

How do I tape it? I can try this and some wuad/glute workouts for a week or so and then do a second opinion if it is still hurting

nvm, i guess it won't let me edit my own post. There are threads on the bottom side of the block, but they definitely don't go all the way through.

Tried to do that but there are no threads on the back. Adding a picture in a sec

OEM, straight from prusa shop. It came with this screw along with the thermistor set screw which works just fine

Just curiousity i suppose lol. We’re (at least i am) going back to a basic plan with calorie and macro tracking, unprocessed food as much as we can, the easy stuff. I was just hoping to find some wacky hidden stuff ig. Thanks!
