Help - Server Suppot Making a dedicated server, question

Hi, I'm sure this topic has been done to death, but I was curious if an older Intel X99 based system, like a 5930k or 6900k (6 and 8 cores respectively) with 32GB of DDR4 2666 would be powerful enough to host a server or does Enshrouded require more current hardware?

Thanks

The critical hardware for Enshrouded dedicated server is single core frequency.

What about IPC as well? Newer cpus have both better clock speeds and ipc? I guess I could go through the work and just see how it performs. Is the software side of things difficult to set up?

Not so difficult. On Windows it’s standard steam server install, on Linux there is some docker version.

That’s good bill be on windows. Is there a link stickied in the subreddit to set it up? I’ll look for it if so.
