What to do with my spare PC? #1
I have 2 computers,

And my spare PC which is being used as a file server right now. Gonna put it on windows 7 or if not the other one on windows 7

I really dont know what to use them for, but i might put both of them back on windows 7 ultimate or if not at least leave the server on windows 8.1 and put windows 7 on my main computer.

Any suggestions on what to use Eddie-Server for?

It's really up to you man, wait until you think of a project that interests you personally that needs hardware. What sort of thing were you thinking?

If you don't mind me asking.. Why did you build a new computer with relatively new specs if you already have a better computer, and/or if you don't really know what you want to do with it?
I've got two lower spec computers and a Raspberry Pi right now that I don't really know what to do with myself.
The Pi is just sitting there ready for any project.
One of the computer is working but haven't been used in a while and is sitting in my "pc graveyard" and gathering dust.

and the third server-ish computer is a laptop I "borrowed" from school which I'm currently setting up ubuntu server on and will probably be using it for getting familiar with cracking and maybe run an apache server on to do some other testing.

Well i tried using it for recording thorugh my old ass elgato capture card. Worked well but it looks like shit on stream and on recording so i gave up on that idea. So far im using it for a LAN file host which i think i can use it for more things

I made it as i wanna gonna have like a stream / gaming setup but i need to buy another capture card and i dont have the money anymore so ima just use it for other things. I mean it sits here for another person to come round and play on it as i also have 3 monitors aha so multitasking isnt a problem

Ahh I see. But with those specs you could easily record with Fraps, dxtory or shadowplay. Streaming wouldn't be a problem either unless your internet is trash Smile

I wouldnt say my internet is trash but its unreliable. 100 MBPS Download with 6 MBPS Upload. However their is a tablet in the house which torrents and it destroys the internet. Brings me down to around 5 MBPS Download And my Upload is not even a thing. Before he has broken the firmware on the HUB and took us offline for an hour before i took his tablet and powered it off. 

But when playing games on the I7 2600k whilst streaming. It gets laggy and you do notice it. Reason to why i got the second PC. Plus side is i guess is that i can multi account on steam etc. Aha But still im open up for ideas on what to use them on :noh:
