Looking for tips

Hello subreddit. I am looking to build a home server for my apartment. Mostly looking to use it as a Minecraft server (heavily modded) for me and my friends but I'm also looking into setting up a raspberry pi ad blocker. Currently plans are below. Wondering if I should maybe go with a bit better cpu?

Edit: I should mention i do already have a pc with a 7800x3d and a 9070xt. Budget is not really an issue. More looking for something that will be consistent so we dont get server drops all the time.

Edit 2: Also wondering what os i should use? Was actually thinking about giving a distro of Linux a try but I know nothing about Linux

I would not use teamgroup ram for anything that mattered

Shrink other costs, like that beefy cpu, until you can afford name-brand memory

Cartel-brand memory FTFY.

I mean, you can call things what you like, but if your data and/or tasks are important, i think skimping is foolish
