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 ❤

That's what I thought as well! I was quite surprised with what it still can do, so I'm really happy with it! Especially since I love giving tech a longer/second life when it's still good. I always try to get the most out of it and this project is a great success :)
