Hello all!
I've been running a modded Minecraft server for a small community on a late Mac Mini that used to be my workstation. Current specs are:
* 3.2 Ghz 6-Core Intel Core i7 CPU
* 64 GB 2667 MHz DDR4 Ram
I'm running a custom modpack with about 200+ mods, but most are small quality-of-life mods. The only big ones are Create and Ars Nouveau. That being said, It is still chugging with just a couple of people online.
The server is running in a docker on OrbStack, which I know is not the cleanest way to do things, but feels like my only choice on MacOS. I'm not interested in formatting this mac, as I'm still reliant on having access to the Apple ecosystem (unfortunately) for creative apps.
I'm looking at local deals on FB Marketplace to pick up a cheaper, used computer, like an optiplex, to run as a linux server. What should I be looking for as an upgrade over what I currently have? I want to mainly use it to host game servers, and am aware that single thread performance is what matters most. Thanks!
