I guess you might want to ask this question in one of the self-hosting communities (there’s a bunch that are active, so I’m not linking one)
But getting back to the topic:
jellyfin needs very little
I’m running mine on a laptop with 4 threads at 2.6GHz and on 8GB of RAM it was fine with a bunch of other stuff running
OwnCast
IDK but for personal use I’d expect to also have low requirements
Minecraft server
That part I’m not sure about. I’d expect it to be a bit more demanding
play some steam games
I understand you’ll be running those on another computer and only streaming via OwnCast, so that goes back to earlier point

The requirements for a Minecraft server are pretty minimal if it’s not modded and just for a couple players. If you’re running a couple hundred mods, it will need a fast CPU and lots of RAM.
