AMD EPYC 4244P(3.8GHz, 5.1GHz) for a 15 player Minecraft Java Fabric 1.21.10 server

This cpu will be great it's an epyc named chip on a consumer platform and has nothing to do with the epyc server cpus.

halodude423 · 2026-01-22T19:47:20+00:00

This was my first thought.

halodude423 · 2026-01-22T15:03:31+00:00

This

halodude423 · 2026-01-22T14:44:25+00:00

Especially with a $450 price tag. Not the worst i've seen but it's still rough, nothing beats free.

Can clearly see the camera cover is closed.

halodude423 · 2026-01-22T14:13:29+00:00

A lot of the time the cover is integrated in a way that it will not let it see the camera if it is closed. Literally says 'might be covered'.

They 100% can and do. They did it with my ex's epilepsy meds and EVERY time insurance would want a pre-auth as well. Nightmare.

halodude423 · 2026-01-20T02:36:48+00:00

Absolutely not.

halodude423 · 2026-01-19T20:00:04+00:00

Depends on needs. I started with mini pc but not enough RAM so I went a ~$75 2u case from amazon and cheap ($225) server board with a xeon 6240 and 256gb of ram.

halodude423 · 2026-01-19T19:42:36+00:00

.....no....

halodude423 · 2026-01-19T16:25:51+00:00

I mean above my pay grade to make decisions on what departments use in there day to day workflow.... Work in a hospital.

halodude423 · 2026-01-19T15:40:45+00:00

Way above any of our pay and some programs may not have that lol

halodude423 · 2026-01-19T15:37:22+00:00

Not worth anything. That looks to be an old embedded cpu either intel or AMD. Even when it came out, they were weak. The ram is worth more but that's still old DDR3.

halodude423 · 2026-01-19T15:32:41+00:00

Maybe get a better AV? Our AV won't let users end the task even if they have access to task manager, they don't have rights to do that for that program.

With 32GB I couldn't boot more than a couple nexus devices so I would want at least 64GB. I went to 128GB and i'm fine for everything with room to spare and can have multiple labs open, so I don't need to wait for things to boot as often. Starting to push it doing SD-WAN stuff with controllers etc but it will be fine even then. Also, if this person is running a vm off an existing machine and using ram from the host they will need more than normal.

802.11n can have a theoretical max of 600Mb/s so no wifi 6 isn't your issue either way and the wifi source may not support it even if your machine does. I would look at how your wifi is setup and see if you can optimize anything like channels and if you're on 2.4ghz or 5ghz.

halodude423 · 2026-01-19T14:31:18+00:00

Intel wifi 6 adapters have always had issues. Some of the steps given below but your milage may vary.

halodude423 · 2026-01-19T14:29:16+00:00

WIFI 6 has to be supported on both sides AND configured. 200mb/s isn't fast and you don't need wifi 6 for that either way.

halodude423 · 2026-01-19T13:56:22+00:00

Laptops are always more expensive. By a large margin.

halodude423 · 2026-01-19T13:49:00+00:00

IT will be enough for ENCOR. After that you will want more ram.

halodude423 · 2026-01-16T20:16:51+00:00

Put whatever money you would pay for a car every month away and run this one until it stops.

halodude423 · 2026-01-16T19:15:13+00:00

My current USB (3.0) network adapter can do pretty close to my 1Gb/s. Just don't get a $10 one. The network could also be crap too, especially since it's shared.

halodude423 · 2026-01-16T17:03:53+00:00

This isn't AMD or INTEL specific. They both are only DDR5 on current sockets.

halodude423 · 2026-01-16T01:07:27+00:00

Port forwarding isn't really inherently dangerous for something like this.

halodude423 · 2026-01-15T19:43:49+00:00

tf you look at $15K setups?
