Looking for advice on a good Mini PC for a family Minecraft server. 64 GB, SSD, budget is $400. Amazon is preferred, because I have award credits from my job. I’m happy to assemble things myself if that’s more cost effective.

Asus has always been a solid brand in my experience. I would recommend anything Ryzen-based, since they’re definitely in the lead over Intel right now, but anything with at least 4 cores that can run at at least 4.0GHz will be fine.
Minecraft servers can eat up a ton of RAM, so I would focus on that first. 32GB minimum, maybe 64. Should also preferably have an M.2 SSD, but anything non-mechanical is fine. Other than that, there isn’t much spec-wise you need to worry about.
