  • Some tips here:

    • get a platinum rated power supply, if you can afford it go for a titanium. The efficiency in the power supply is half of the efficiency of the rig
    • reduce the number of the modules to the minimum
    • get a platinum rated power supply ;)
    • get big passive coolers, you want to idle the fans
    • reduce the number of usb and connectors to the minimum. Their converters are not the most efficient. Try not to connect enything on them.
    • NO mechanical parts (including fans or water coolers)
    • set schedulers to conservative or power efficient. You don’t want to spike the power just because a task is 2ms longer than expected.
    • pick a power efficient CPU/gpu (I think we can discard this one based in your choices)
    • use the latest amd adaptative undervoltage technology to ensure to reduce the wattage of the cores
    • try to reduce to the bareminimum the number of background tasks /services running.

    And that’s all. Sometimes there is a component of trial and error because sometimes the curve performance / power is not entirely linear and you don’t want to hit exponential-non-linear zone.

    Good luck and if you can post you build with numbers and some lessons learnt would be great

    Good luck





  • This is not the Nat functionality as people associated with ipv4, and certainly it is not showing the drawback of allowing the communication only when the NATed client started the communication.

    Even if they are alike they are not the same.

    I reaffirm myself here. It is possible to have full ipv6 communication and providers do not have cgnats. It is your easiest and most uncomplicated solution with almost nothing to install to make it work.

    And in addition, I have to say that I don’t see any benefit in using such functionality at home. If someone can illustrate me a use case I would be thankful









  • As a friendly suggestion: Don’t rely on wireguard alone, try instead services like tailscale or zerotier because if you set up ur server in residential zone, there are huge chances that you will hit some cg-nat in other cities / countries.

    Those are nasty problems that wireguard is not able to solve but those programs can

    Apart of that this is the zero risk approach and it should be the default one.
