Im looking at building/Buying a Dell R430 Server to be used as a re stream server. I plan on using the Hikvision software with it.


Right now i have 32 Hikvision cameras all 3MP 1080p, and i know ill be adding more. Im using a Rack mount Qnap for recording and playback now.
My current cameras are DS-2CD2132-I and DS-2CD2232-I5. Im running into them crashing from using too many streams from each camera on our tvs around the factory.

What im trying to figure out is how much power will this server need and whats i should throw in the build.

I was thinking at least 64GB DDR4 ECC of Ram and be able to upgrade easily down the road if needed.
Dual Xeon E5 Processors (not sure what ones yet)
Intel 10 Gigabit fiber NIC
Windows Server OS

Should i see if i can do a GPU?
SSD Caching?


Any help would be much appreciated!
