isnt she a beouty? thats one of my many webservers i have this here is only for my website development stuff and some customer sites which need special previleges it has 8*3 Ghz 24GB ECC Ram DDR 4 and a 500GB SSD + HDD





as you can see there is no hard load, if you know how to setup such a thing good everything will work fine and dont use much ressources and even the anti DDOS method is unique and  :)

And all of a sudden my server feels like a midget with a Core 2 Duo e7400 2.4ghz dual core 4gb of ram and a 250gb hdd and yes the RAM and CPU is almost maxed but the system is running 2 minecraft servers 1 Vinilla 1 modded (the modpack is Skyfactory 3 and that modpack uses over 2.5gigs of ram alone) and the CPU is maxed from Folding@Home which basicly is a program that lends extra CPU power for doing research on protiens and is set to a low priority so it doesn't affect the 2 game servers when they need CPU power

i can make both your servers feel tiny hows a



Xeon 24 core 1.5TB yes terrabytes of ecc ram and about 100TB hdd storage sound? oh and for timmy heres the motherboard that can hold the 1.5tb ram https://www.scorptec.com.au/product/Motherboards/Server-&-Workstation/56640-X10DRI-LN4plus 24 DDR4 slots


nothing much changed for my pc apart from a new ram stick and a gtx960 4gb from asus

Lol server motherboards ... tbh uh;
1. Green motherboards are ugly XD
2. They are great when you need the specific usage they offer but for mere games and everyday use it's quite overkill. Even 8GB is quite plenty for most people.

I haven't but I've done the same in a minecraft server just fine with like several thousands of TNT going off simultaneously.

Also, have you actually monitored the memory usage? Since explosions tend to use a lot of physics calculations it's more likely to be a CPU thing than RAM; So unless your RAM is at 100% usage (all of those 16GB being in use) and the CPU is NOT at 100% usage, there won't be no difference whatsoever to adding more.

Another (hopefully obvious) thing; Is the game 32 or 64 bit? Because any game that's made for 32bit can't even use more than 4GB of RAM anyway.

I'm talking a Minecraft server I ran on my own PC, the same PC I used to also play the game on. This had an i7 and a rather old GPU.

And uh, if you're playing with thise specs; That's a mobile (low power) CPU with 2 cores and a low-end mobile GPU. No wonder it would lag because it's clearly not enough CPU power to keep up with those levels of physics.

More RAM won't make it faster...

Most of the builds I have on PC Part Picker as a completed build that I update whenever any changes are made those you can find in these links:
BIG PC: https://pcpartpicker.com/b/xQGG3C (Needs to be updated I have a 144hz 1080p monitor now and a GTX 1070ti) (attached is some updated pictures)
Mini PC: https://pcpartpicker.com/b/8w7WGX (Needs to be updated this one has the AMD RX 480 8gb that used to be in the BIG PC now)

I do have Portable PC build that isn't on PC Part Picker and has a i5 7600k, 16gb of RAM, two 120gb SSDs, 1tb HDD, and the GTX 1060 6gb I had in the Mini PC, a picture of that PC is attached too

That looks like a nice build (In that thin case)

I still pick Intel and Nvidia, but that's only because it works better for what I need it for.

I finally upgraded my over summer and Christmas.
Got rid of my 980GTX's and replaced them with EVGA 1080GTX's (kept the SLI bridge)
And got a Z370 MOBO with an i7-8700K rather than my old i7-975EE.
My 64GB of DDR3 1800 was replaced with 16GB of DDR4 3000.
Swapped out my 128 GB Kingston SSD with the Samsung V-NAND 850 EVO 1TB.
I still have my 1TB SSD/7200 hybrid, but I've added a WD-RED 4TB and a Seagate 2TB 7200 HDD since then.
Also swapped out my old Antec 902 tower with a Rosewill Midnight Edition. (Couldn't stand not having USB 3.0 on the front, and it was 80% at the time)
