Recommendation for Hardware

Hi there,

 

after upgrading my HDD I really fall in love with Unraid. Everything works fine, I can game on my machine, have a Windows Server 2016 running, have pfSense running and a CloudServer based on Ubuntu with Nextcloud. Really great. 

 

But now my wife wants also to game on my server because her Macbook pro is not good enough for gaming. So I am running out of cores :P

 

I like to upgrade my motherboard and CPU to have more Cores then my i7 6700K has. So I think a Xeon CPU would be fine. Before upgrading I thought I ask you for goof motherboards and CPU for 2 Gaming VMs, pfSense and a Nextcloud Server. 

 

The following hardware do I use:

 

1) 4 x 16 GB DDR4 Ram

2) 3ware 9750-9i

3) Intel Quad NIC 1000

And for Gaming:

1 x 1080 GeForce

1 x AMD Vega 64

 

SO what I need is a new CPU and Motherboard and a good IOMMU grouping :)

 

So what do you prefer for this?

 

Thanks

 

Benny
