Welcome!

My largest concern with Powerbot is their staff to be honest, Coma (imo) has been great even if his decisions were stern. Paris (idk what name he goes by anymore) is something of a manchild from my experience with him, I just don't feel like they have their head in the right spot to manage a...

The next up from the RX 480 would be a GTX 1070: EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 8GB SC Gaming ACX 3.0 Video Card (08G-P4-6173-KR) - PCPartPicker United Kingdom

Core i7-6700K 4.0GHz Quad-Core, Radeon RX 480 8GB NITRO+ OC, Define S ATX Mid Tower - System Build - PCPartPicker United Kingdom You could opt for a more powerful GPU depending on the games you play, however you should know it will be a large price premium from this point onward. I also didn't...

Core i7-6800K 3.4GHz 6-Core, Radeon RX 480 8GB NITRO+, Define S ATX Mid Tower - System Build - PCPartPicker United Kingdom The CPU could be dropped down to a 6700k if you feel a 4c/8t CPU is enough for your VM needs. Storage is kinda personal preference imo so change that as you see fit, some...

Well depending which chips you're looking at, there really isn't much difference between the two in the first place. The way the product line works is based on yield quality, certain chips are better quality than others, the higher quality yield is used as Xeon chips. The lesser the quality of...

Rather unsuccessful, my accessible area just sucks for IT work (unless you consider offices). I was offered a job 150 miles away from my home lmao.

Well this is the only reason I'm here :P

The PSU change is certainly welcome, it was my only concern with the build last time but for whatever reason I couldn't find another compatible PSU that wasn't overpriced. If it's going to be used for virtualization then 32GB may not be overkill considering you'll be running UnRaid as well, it's...

Generally speaking that would mean you need a CPU ~2x as powerful as your iMac CPU (i5 5575R). Unfortunately that means you would need an Extreme Edition CPU which is expensive in itself, then you factor in the motherboard socket upgrade (LGA-2011) and you're paying a lot. Core i7-6800K 3.4GHz...

Looked at everything and I've not seen anything out of place. Had a fairly extensive search for a better PSU but without paying a ridiculous amount I really don't see there being a better option, was hoping to find a more efficient PSU with a lower wattage. All in all it should be perfectly...

While I can't be certain as people have claimed performance hits with recent changes, I personally can't see that APU handling 4 bots smoothly. Athlon X4 880K 4.0GHz Quad-Core - System Build - PCPartPicker United Kingdom Again I can't be certain but I know that CPU is better than the APU in your...

Yeah I wouldn't be concerned about that tbh, gigabit ethernet ports are pretty much standard for every mobo.

Yeah Task Manager should help identify whether or not the CPU is your limiting factor. And yeah I would expect exceptional bandwidth on a VPS, I wouldn't be surprised if the VPS in question had two gigabit ethernet ports on the motherboard.

Yeah you have to be careful with VPS stuff simply because they're usually outdated machines that people try to make money off. I would still double check that your CPU is being properly utilized, if it's not, then you know the CPU is the problem. Why would a networking card be necessary for...

Well you should be able to get a rough idea by checking Task Manager. Chances are it's probably because of the CPU, it is like 5 years old coming up to 6 years.

Fairly confident that you could run 2, anything past that I would expect to be a bit laggy if not unusable.

I suspect no-one could actually answer this question for you without prior knowledge as to how well the architecture performs. However what I can tell you is, an E5606 is really quite old as it was released on the first quarter of 2011 and does not support hyperthreading. This really is a shot...

That is actually a good point, I forgot Skylake was DDR4, I didn't really care for DDR4 when it came out because memory bandwidth on DDR3 is still really good. Core i5-6600K 3.5GHz Quad-Core, Source 210 (Black) ATX Mid Tower - System Build - PCPartPicker Changed the memory to one within...

Core i5-6600K 3.5GHz Quad-Core, Source 210 (Black) ATX Mid Tower - System Build - PCPartPicker Neither build had a motherboard so I had to add one, only did it for the Intel because I believe Intel better suits your needs. You would need a GPU for the AMD system, this not only adds more cost...
