[QUOTE="powermarcel10, post: 1148614, member: 108759"] Hi, In short, MP is not using multicore architecture. A dual core cpu will be enough. MP itself is not using that much cpu power, so every modern cpu will work fine. A faster cpu will not giving you a better MP experience. Something like an i3 would be excellent as it had more than enough power and is not using much energy. The gpu on the server doen t matter for the video quality on your cliënts. That Being said, on the cliënt side its no problem aswell as every modern nvidia/AMD/Intel gpu/apu is more than capabele enough to play full HD video without a problem. Just ensure that you are using the right codecs (I prefer LAV wich can be installed with the MP installer.) I recomand to use a solide LAN connection from your server to your cliënt(s). A full HD videosteam will require a big and stable bandwith. A WiFi connection can work, but with a LAN connection you know for sure it will work. I have no experience with using NAS software, but personally I don't think you have to make use of it for MP. I hope this helps! Please let us know if you need some more advice.
