EDIT : I’m going to use a Lenovo P500 (at around $130) with 8 threads (will upgrade it later) and 64gb of RAM. It support the E5 v4 family so that’s great. If someone knows the power consumption, that would be cool!

Hello, I want to build a “homelab” and I’m searching for a server, what do you propose me as good options? I need something with at least 64gb RAM, can buy used, and minimum 16vcores… Around 150$ If you have any good options let’s comment below 👇 THX ❤

    Oh I wanted to also mention another benefit of NUCs I have not seen mentioned commonly is their warranty. They are warrantied for 3 years for free! Asus owns the brand so the warranty process is a little more convoluted for old Intel ones but I had to do an RMA on one and that warranty is great for dollar value.
