I don't think it is the hardware. Home is Windows 10 laptop, with an I7 and 16GB of memory. At work it was a desktop running Ubuntu, which I think has 16GB of memory, I don't know the CPU, but, it isn't slow otherwise.
David, It may be the hardware architecture. Many years ago, my boss bought an Hot i7 16G system to run a 8 channel video streamer. Fail- random streams locked.
The stream board Mfgr was puzzled. 'We use a Dell 386 server with 3 of those boards (12 streams)'
The boss bought a used Dell 1U, rack server. No more problems.
Game systems are Graphics intensive. Servers tend to be Data intensive.
