I'm wanting to get a small PC or server to use as a host for Ark, Conan Exiles, and Valheim. Maybe one or two others on occasion. I have a 64gb ram kit already so I would just need to figure out the rest (CPU, case, mobo, storage).
Here's my current plan via PC Part Picker: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/7P78Tm
However, I'm finding it difficult to find some of these parts and it seems too expensive/overkill.
Ideally I'd spend around $300-400 which I think should be feasible considering I already own the ram.
I've looked at servers on eBay, and they're all overpriced because most of them include ram.
I'd like it to be headless and as small and efficient of a form factor as possible.
I would also like to make at least the Conan server public and host hopefully 30-50 players.
Thoughts? TIA!
