Xeon Dedicated Server
Buying a server from ebay.?
ALL i need is:
2 GHz Intel XEON (Dual Processor)
I don’t give a crap about anything els (i have it all lmao)
The reason i wanna do this is for gaming PC.
I’ve seen more than enough on ebay for extremely low prices… like $20.
But the problem is they charge like $50 for shipping. Servers are not very heavy nor large. How can shipping be THAT much! And the specs i will make the server later…
2x 2GHz Intel XEONs with Hyper-Threading. They are both technically single core.
nVidia GeForce 8400GS with 512MB of Dedicated memory.
2GB RAM
Windows 7
Are these specs any good for gaming with a server?
What the heck. Servers are absolutely bulky and heavy. That’s a real cost for the shipping. You’ll likely find it very difficult to get drivers for server based system for Windows 7. The graphics isn’t all that important, in fact I’ve built a few headless (no video) servers. This is a light build but could handle perhaps up to 8 connections depending on the game if you built it for a gaming SERVER. But as a gaming system it’s not really that great.
