I have a gaming PC that’s been sitting around and have been thinking about finding ways to use it.

Specs:

  • CPU: i9 9900K
  • RAM: 64 GB DDR4
  • GPU: RX6700

My “homelab” - if you can even call it that - is pretty basic. I have:

  • RPi 4 running Pi-Hole and TeslaMate
  • Synology DS218 to backup phones and pcs

Should I repurpose my old gaming PC to a Proxmox machine and run everything off that 1 machine?

What else can/should I consider hosting?

In payment for my support I demand 1 cpu core in perpetuity.
