      I mean maybe gaming is not the end goal for those types of people. Some people just like setting up and maintaining server hardware. One of my favorite things was maintaining a Team fortress classic dedicated server. It’s fun watching others have fun.

          Yeah your joke was funny. When I worked in the data center I would see way more than that in a rack. From what I can tell it’s only one server in that rack the rest is 2 drive arrays, a network switch, Two patch panels, a monitor, and an UPS.
