I am making a gameing PC that I will play mc at max settings and will eventially turn it into a server and build a better gameing one. That is the reason for the fast proccesor and 32gb of ram so I definately want them but please tell me if every other part is good my budget is 1500.
It's miles better than the parts you chose for for a whole lot cheaper. You won't need 32GB ram for a Minecraft server. The motherboard you chose isn't really needed. The SSD I added in has 256GB of storage instead of 120..(For the optical drive, just get something cheap with good reviews.) You don't need Windows 7 Professional..You never will. You don't need 750w. The case fan shouldn't be needed but I'm not sure on that..You will never need a fan controller. The r7 260x is good enough for Minecraft, but I don't see the reason for fitting that in with an i7. Anyways, those are the main changes.

Thank you for the reply I really want 32 gigs of ram as I said in the origional post. So I just wanted suggestions on the mother board and graphics card. The reason I picked 750 watt was because I wanted room for improvements and for future builds.
1. Home hosting is not good for large servers. Home hosting is ok for small private servers but that is it. And if you need more then 16 GB of RAM then you are hosting a too big of a server for your network.
2. It is better just get a gaming PC and then pay a hosting company to host your server.

I understand that home hosting is not good for large servers but I like the fact that I have full control over my server becadur it is in my house. The extra ram is so I can upload and render videos while the server is running.

You still won't need 32GB of ram. All you need for a server for Minecraft is like 8 tops..Maybe not even that. You also only need 8 for rendering videos. Putting those two together makes 16GB.

Then just get a VPS to host a server then you have complete control over the computer.

Yeah, change everything you have besides the ram and 750w to all of that and you'll be good.
