Heya, I am looking at upgrading my server and just wanted some advice regarding the parts list I have so far. For reference, I am currently running a 4-core i7 (7th or 8th Gen IIRC), 16GB of RAM, and I already own both the GPU and Storage so those will help bring down the price significantly. I use my system for Media Server duties, Home Assistant, Nextcloud, Immich, and a Gaming VM that pulls double duty for design and coding work. CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D 4.2 GHz 16-Core Processor ($916.00 @ Centre Com) CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-U12S chromax.black 55 CFM CPU Cooler ($145.00 @ Centre Com) Motherboard: MSI PRO B650M-P Micro ATX AM5 Motherboard ($155.00 @ Centre Com) Memory: G.Skill Flare X5 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 Memory ($323.64 @ Amazon Australia) Storage: Seagate IronWolf Pro NAS 20 TB 3.5" 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive (Purchased For $899.00) Storage: Seagate IronWolf Pro NAS 20 TB 3.5" 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive (Purchased For $899.00) Video Card: Asus DUAL OC V2 GeForce RTX 3060 Ti LHR 8 GB Video Card Case: Fractal Design Node 804 MicroATX Mid Tower Case ($199.00 @ PCCaseGear) Any advice would be much appreciated!

Thanks @SimonFand @ich777, appreciate the quick replies and the suggestion of Prometheus Exporter, will give it a look.

Potentially redundant question but one I can not seem to find a clear answer to. I am running an RTX 3060 in my system, passing it through to a Windows 11 VM. The Nvidia-Driver plug-in states to not install it at all if the GPU is being used within a VM, even though it does not automatically switch any of my dockers over to using the GPU. Does this mean I can not install or use GPU Statistics? Would be nice to be able to view my GPU Stats from my Dashboard instead of having to remote into the VM every time, especially if I am rendering or performing a GPU-intensive task and just want to keep a track of my Stats almost like an indicator of whether the render has completed.
