I wonder where tu put my money on: RAM vs CPU vs ?

Core numbers ??

A12-9800: Compute Cores 12 (4 CPU + 8 GPU) 3.1GHz/3.8GHz L2 2048 TDP125W GPU R7 AM4 overkill 120 EUR --> MB Asus PRIME B350-PLUS ( 6 Sata rev 3.0, 4 USB 3.1 Gen1, 1 port M.2 , HDMI, DVI et VGA ) 100 EUR
A6-9500: Compute Cores 6 (2 CPU + 4 GPU) 3GHz/3.4GHz L2 1024 TDP65W GPU R5 AM4 not so bad 50 EUR --> MB Asus PRIME B350-PLUS ( 6 Sata rev 3.0, 4 USB 3.1 Gen1, 1 port M.2 , HDMI, DVI et VGA ) 100 EUR
AMD FX-8300 core 8 threads 8 3.3GHz/4.2GHz L2 8096 TDP95W AM3+ 100 EUR --> MB Asus M5A97 AMD 970/SB950 lan Realtek 8111F 100 EUR

Ram: 4Go, 8GO, 16GO usually crucial or kingstone non-ECC

HDD already bought: 6 * Seagate IronWolf 8 TB, ST8000VN0022

OS will be on a Kingston Technology - DTSE9G2/32GB USB 3.0

Hello,

- Server use will be a 24/7 nas+nextcloud+deluge+mumble+forum server. Pool of users will be around 10 for the nas+nextcloud. For mumble+forum its around 70+ user for mumble. Forum is not completely fixed but will be like SMF or BBorad or phpBased.

- Server will be in my sister office ( architect office, 4 laptops and 2 desktop win10 (daily snaptshot backup), a ton of autocad files, sketch-up and cleraviewfocus) . Behind a SG-4860 psf firewall. it will be also use a a print server.
- Will be use as the main nas. Nightly backup on a 2012 Qnap TS-419P II ( Just upgrade with 4*WD Red WD80EFZX. maxup for capacity )
- 2 jail needed for deluge and mumble+forum.
- network is FTTH 1GO/1GO.

Building will be zfs raid6 encrypted . Quota used for nas partition/users.

CPU choice is mostly driven by a good value choice:
- equilibrium between pricing and perf. Brand new stuff not needed. But good perf ration over pricing. AMD based so far as Intel is clearly expensive for that kind of machine.
RAM choice same politic.
- ECC non ECC is not really important.

thank you.

- Sorry. Jail is equivalent to docker in freenas...

- About 99.99% sure transcoding won't be necessary.

- Encryption is not a must have, but in case of maintenance ( got a 3ys rma for the ironwolf ), I just send the faulty hdd back worryless about privacy.

- my provider gets 16GO DDR4 ram price ECC/NonECC 250EUR/140EUR ! Quiet a difference!

I'll check your hardware too.
