I’m just about ready to quit my job and do something like open up a little business that makes enough to pay my mortgage and bills for the moment, nothing too elaborate.
Even if I do not follow through with it, I’m trying to get some hardcore research done while the passion is still here.
I’m mainly trying to keep things simple and work out the basics.
So, let’s just say I wanted to have 10 terminals including my own and all I wanted to do for starters was specialise in World of Tanks. A place where people who have a common interest can chill out, pool ideas, share tips and have a silky-smooth gaming experience with fellow addicts.
What I know is that WoT is not extremely demanding regarding system specs, that single-threaded performance is a priority and that Windows 10 would be the best operating system to run it on.
I’d assume that each ‘terminal’ should have its own GPU.
I’d like to stick with AMD everything ideally.
What I don’t know is whether to just have 10 separate PCs just connected to one network, or have a server and 9 or 10 clients.
I basically know nothing about the latter, but it is something that I’m interested in learning and I get the impression that Wendell has a passion for it, which I can relate to. There’s something exciting about it and AMD and motherboard producers are fanning that flame.
Apart from that basic hardware side of things, I also haven’t had much luck with finding out how to go about the Windows licence and which ‘package’ to go with. I ended up getting to a page where I could see the Terms of Use after selecting the software however there are three options that could possibly fit the bill, going by the names alone:
Windows Desktop Operating System
Windows MultiPoint Server
Windows Server
Yes I’m a relative noob, so be gentle please.
At the moment I’m not after business advice and I know that if I wanted to maximize earnings, I would focus on a multi-platform, latest and greatest set up. I’m definitely not opposed to the latter, by the way, but I’m a little too depleted of mental and other resources to think too big, currently.
This is probably why I want to open up a business in which I can play tanks all day.
Please feel free to move this to the most appropriate forum section.
I tried searching the forums for what I’m after but didn’t quite find it.
Thank you for your assistance and advice in advance/anticipation.
