The making of the IT server

A while back, I needed and wanted a new server, so I made one. Today I’ll show you what used to make it and what I use it for.
​
Let’s start with main components:

• EVGA 500W PSU
• AMD Ryzen 5 1500X
• ASUS Prime B350-Plus, Socket-AM4
• Ballistix Sport DDR4 16GB 2400MHz
• BitFenix Nova Midi Tower
• WD Red 3TB 3.5"
• Palit GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB Dual OC

Thanks to my well times upgrade of my table on the room, I had a perfect place to do my build. When I did, it was streamed live on Twitch. This is where I do most of my work on my computers and other projects.

Putting the machine together was the easy part, whenever I needed and extra screw, fan or cable, I just reach out to my stash.
​
So what do I use the server for?

• FTP
• Minecraft Server
• Music bot 24/7
• Other different small things

​What OS?
​Well I had a library to choose from, but I went with wind 10 pro. With the ok decent GPU, it can be used for playing if needed.
​
Is it worth it having your own server? For me yes, because I use it with someone else. For my own sake, I could fit everything I could ever need in my own pc. In addition, looking into parts, ordering, building, setting up and using brings practise and lots of fun!
