Windows VM on 10400? How many cores to leave unraid/dockers?

Featured Replies

I have a 10400 for my unraid home server and wanted to set up a windows 10 VM as a way to occasionally play games and do some Solidworks as my windows laptop is on its last legs.

 

It will be directly plugged into a monitor, mouse, and keyboard and i'm gonna allocate 24GB of RAM (DDR4 3200Mhz CL16) to it. It will have it's own GPU (not passing through the iGPU on the 10400).

 

My plan was to give the windows VM 4 cores (8 threads) of the total 6 cores (12 threads) on the 10400 but i'm worried about leaving only 2 cores (4 threads) to unraid. I mostly just run a few docker containers, so can anyone tell me if 2 cores is enough to run the following docker containers:

 * Jellyfin  
 * Kavita (ebook server)  
 * Navidrome (music server)  
 * Minecraft (only used occasionally)  
 * 2 instances of Foundry (Virtual Tabletop)   

 

It doesnt seem like many docker containers but i am a little worried that 2 cores from the 10400 might not be enough to run jellyfin and minecraft and foundry.

 

 The server has 48GB RAM total so 24GB will still be left for the server itself which seems like more than enough.
