First Raspberry Pi
October 30, 2023, 15:41
Hi y'all, I'm currently wanting to have my own Minecraft server running off of a Raspberry Pi but I'm not sure what board, components or cases I might need. Does anyone have any recommendations for what I might need?
depends on your budget and what power you need
My budget is around £90-110 max and the server is just going to be for around 4-10 players
oh great
ok so I'm thinking the pi 5 is great because it has the most power, but you'd have to wait a couple months now because it's only on pre order
What about case and power supply? Would I need them?
I've got a great case and power supply combo but let's figure out the board first
Alright
ok one second let me find the price of something
Sure thing
the pi 4 8gb is about £75
you from the UK?
Yes
ok perfect me too
is £75 good for you?
What about 4gb?
Or is 8gb the minimum
you can go down to 1gb, just 8gb will be a lot less laggy
I might just go with the 4gb option then
yeah that's fine
ok now let me find you the case and power supply combo I was telling you about
Alr
ok is this fine for you? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TTN1M7G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Looks good
But it says it doesn't ship to uk
Is there another store I can get it from
oh I did not see that
Alright
there is no A version
Oh right
I assumed it would be like the raspberry pi 3
no
Alright
I was thinking of using this
yes that's fine
How about the SD card?
How much space will I need
that is tiny, it's pretty much incased in the case
?
