I have a Minecraft Localhost server. But unfortunately it is only online when my PC is switched on. So I thought I would get an extra computer for it. But I also need one that is well suited for this. It shouldn't be quite as big and should only cost 200 max. 370 euro. A Minecraft server (Citybuild) and a Ts3 server should run on it. And the hardware must be able to work for a long time. It should best have Windows 10. It should also be well cooled and not consume as much electricity. And of course it should also have enough RAM. 4 / 5GB or so. And I say it again: the hardware should really be suitable for it.
Can someone recommend such a server PC? And best of all also a program with which I can access the desktop of the server from my PC.
Thanks in advance!

Vote 1: I can recommend one for this budget:
Vote 2: I can recommend one for these purposes but the price is above your budget.
I can't recommend a server PC, but a program for accessing your desktop.
I myself also have a second PC for servers. I always use TeamViewer to access it. It is completely free for non-commercial use.
Actually, if you don't care about space and power, I would even get a real server. E.g. This one here:

And then this twice:
Intel Xeon E5-2640 V1 - 6-Core 2.50Ghz (15MB Cache, 7.20GTs, 95W)
And then two 8 gigabyte sticks and a hard drive…
Are you sure you really want to run a server 24/7? That is easily 400 euro a year only in electricity costs or do your parents pay this? Better find a root server provider. From 50 players, you should plan for 10Gb RAM and of course a reasonable CPU and a hard drive that is not exactly slow.
Since you usually do this with Linux, you only need Putty and Winscp. Hopefully you will already have the appropriate Linux know-how.
I would rather use RDP.
Of course it also works, but can you also access it from your cell phone?

The processor is easily sufficient, the graphics unit in the processor is even sufficient for casual gaming on low settings.
The ram is fast and expandable with 8GB.
SSD is always good and thanks to the additional fan and CPU cooler, the PC is very quiet. Since he has no graphics card, he does not need a lot of electricity
Who says he lives with his parents?
I host a MC server on a Raspberry Pi 4 with 4GB. Everything runs smoothly and it costs about 65 euro. A maximum of 4 watts of power consumption. That would be 7 euro a year with continuous operation.
He probably won't be able to run a TS server either. Then you could get another one. And possibly a smaller one like the Raspberry Pi 3
Yes, it goes very well
How stable is the server running on it? Does he quickly reach his limits?
That depends on the number of players and the settings. I can always play smoothly with 2 players in Vanilla.
So I net… So I asked if he lived with his parents. Reading helps…
Then I agree with you.
