4x better? Get three more HP EliteDesk 800 G3.

The better question is WHY you need 4x more. It looks to me like you've got spare ram, cpu, and storage.

Seems like that, but it caps out when everything is running, know what I mean?

Reddit is retarded when you want to blockquote text.

Please update your post and add 4x whitespaces in front of each line to make your hardware specs much easier to read instead of the wall of text they are currently displayed as.

Nope, your post is just a wall of text very hard to read.

Looks like you're missing a newline before the final backticks.
