[Question] Trying to make a LAN game server for my college
as the title reads, just trying to make a LAN server to host minecraft and other games, maybe a steam cache too, for a server in my college, so wanted to ask for suggestion on hardware, will be using all consumer parts
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gG8jGk
this is my list of components so far, I was hoping to get comments on the hardware, going to use docker to run multiple servers at once
I also wanted to add a dual 10gbps card(intel x550-T2) to then use 2 10gbps to 1gbps network switches to connect everyone to the server, so any recommendations for the switch welcome and honestly needed
any tips for configuration and upkeep are welcome
