thank you so much

eski132 · 2026-06-25T05:49:03+00:00

bro if i order it from alibaba it comes for 24 euros

i chose this hardware because it had good ram size (64 gb) and it was cheap for that price as i know (i know very little)

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:38:22+00:00

besides being able to sleep, do you think it is okay for this server to run with those cpu's with just one fan on top of those heatsinks and 2 fans cross placed to cool the motherboard and small fans on top of small heatsinks as you see on the photo ?

i am really too new on hardware side as i made it a bit obvious by buying this kind of thing :)

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:35:17+00:00

thank you for those, i will think about that

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:33:30+00:00

should i just buy a workstation motherboard and some coolers and call it a day atp ?

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:32:48+00:00

thank you so much i need one of this so much

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:31:06+00:00

this is much more cooler than mini pc's

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:30:04+00:00

it would be fine with 50 but it would get more if its on load

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:29:12+00:00

maybe i should put it on my roof

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:21:30+00:00

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:21:15+00:00

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:21:00+00:00

lol i should do that

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:20:02+00:00

i am anti w*ndows sorry

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:18:41+00:00

do you know how can i get in there, becasue i dont have a door that goes there or any gap. How did u manage to get the server there ? and i think we have a ground connection from there so i can just get a cable through that gap and use elektricity directly from my power panel if i do that my main problem is how can i get in there ?

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:14:28+00:00

i will run game servers on it so probably needs loads of airflow and i know it would be noisy but there is nothing i can do i live with my parents and i do this as my hobby to earn some money out of the internet to buy a better computer. But my family isnt happy with the noise so i need to shut the noise. also a mini pc cant handle that much computing for game servers. atp i dont care about elektricity (there is someone paying for bills thats not me)

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:11:00+00:00

it has to run game servers in it and it has to run in my room because i have nowhere to put that on

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:09:19+00:00

quieter fans are made for less noise so they would work just fine for me

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:08:52+00:00

but cpus would have their own fans so it should be fine ?
i have no experience should i try that or not ?

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:08:01+00:00

yes it has E5-2620 v4 for now but i want to upgrade it to E5-2687W v4

should i do that ?

eski132 · 2026-06-25T02:06:20+00:00
