Using Windows Server 2012 r2 for a gaming comunity

So i have a Dell Poweredge 2950 I'm wanting to turn into a server hub for several games for a gaming community. But i keep getting sent in different directions as to what i need to do this. I am pretty convinced i want to use the windows server 2012 R2 OS as i am upgrading my unit to 64gbs of ram (possibly more in time) as well as swapping the twin quad cores for 2x8core processors so i thought id need it for the hardware (correct me if im wrong this is not my area of expertise). I've built computers and dealt with computers but immediately got hit with a bunch of confusing concepts in the world of server. If anyone could please ELI5 cause im lost in all this. I have no clue what any of my options are and im 99% certain it just looks more complicated than it realy is. Thank you.
