I guess the Turbo will be bad since the cpufrequtils normally cause bad fps drops. As far i know the Turbo will reduce the vcore and Hz of one core to boost another. If I am right it is not that good for gameserverhosting.
If you are running Servers a Distro/Version of Distro that aims for stability and long time support should be your choice. That is why I would go with the latest LTS if i have to use Ubuntu. I prefere Debian stable but thats because i use their stable versions since 3.0.
What is your goal by compiling your own kernel? Removing the bloat takes quite a time and you probably wont get any performance boost. What it does is reducing the compiler and boot time.
If you are thinking of security (disable modules everything build in) It will be already to late if someone is able to load modules
If you also want to run hl1 based servers you should think about the ck2 patch for the 2.6.32 kernel. If you like i can give you a compiled 64bit .deb package with minimal config and or the config
For hl1 servers the ck2 really makes a difference to the stock kernel. Also I never had any problems running srcds based server with that kernel.
