Owenisbad Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 I recently bought parts for a server, nothing too high end as it's only used for minecraft at the moment and probably cod4 later on. Specs: Amd athlon 64 x2 4200+ with stock cooler 2gb ddr2 800 asrock n68-s Ati x300 120gb ata xclio windtunnel (bought for cheap from a freind, terrible case) Hec 300w psu The first thing I want to do is get a new psu, I was thinking of a corsair cx430 but not really sure. After that I can either upgrade the cpu cooler so I can o'c it or the hdd. Any ideas of what I should do/what psu to get?

Guest ajmatson Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 I would opt for more memory, also what OS are you going to use? In my main server I have an Antec EarthWatts 500W PSU and it is awesone. Silent, reliable and 80 Plus certified. Paid $49 for it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owenisbad Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 I've got another 2 gigs of ram sitting in another pc that I can use. Unfortunately its running windows 7 at the moment, I tried ubuntu but I just couldn't understand anything on it. That psu sounds good, but I'm not sure it will need anything near 500w.
