Hello, you're preparing to upgrade your home server from an i7 2600 (ddr3) to a newer i7 5820K (x99s sli plus from MSI). You're aiming for better stability with Jellyfin and more versatile usage. You've already verified the components and sourced a PSU (600W) and some RAM (Gskill 2x8GB, 3000MHz DDR4). You considered purchasing an A380/A580 for encoding/decode tasks and AI acceleration but opted to test everything on your existing GT 630. The system failed to boot initially. After trying your main PSU (RMe 750W) and the RX 6900XT, no success was achieved. When you swapped RAM from your main PC (Ripjaws GSKILL 3200MHz DDR4), both systems booted successfully, including your PC. However, you mentioned having two RAM kits—32GB on your PC and 16GB elsewhere. The issue seems to be related to the mismatch in memory configurations between your old and new setup. This inconsistency might cause compatibility problems, especially since your server runs different workloads than your personal machine. I hope this helps clarify the situation. Let me know if you need further guidance!
