Best/good CPU for hosting using 2011-3 LGS socket?
Essentially the title, I’ve inherited an older dell precision workstation that has a Xeon 1603 v3 (garbage) and I want to upgrade. I’ve looked into good single thread performance chips, and it looks like the 1650v4 is performing well in the regard, but I want to be able to adequately host modded Minecraft servers for 5-8 people (as max concurrent users) in packs like ATM or chocolate version.
I have 48 GB of ddr4 2133mhz ram as well as a GTX960 installed to try and make sure I have adequate resources.
If at all possible I also want this PC to be able to stream/record while running the server, as I do have an elgato capture card I can use with it. But if the PC/server just isn’t capable without an expensive CPU upgrade I understand.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
