phat_cow Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 I want to run windows 10 within unraid for gaming. Will an i7-8700k be good enough? It will be hosting a plex server as well but there will only be 1 stream while gaming. I will of course have sonar, radarr and sabnzbd running as well (either within windows 10 or in a docker). Thats pretty much it. I7-8700k and 32gb of ram be good enough for what I want to do? Quote Link to comment
unrateable Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 totally depends on your setup, what games you play and how intense your workloads are imho if you allow unraid 1-2 cores, sonar,radarr,sabnzb,plex 1-2 cores and your gaming vm isolated 4-10 cores it should be fine - provided proper iommu splitting and fast ssd outside the array to host dockers and vm. i wouldn run the services inside of the gaming vm to avoid high io activity / latency lags Quote Link to comment
