Server CPU

[techlists at phpcoderusa.com]

Hi,

I was surfing the Inter Web when I happened upon a Xeon server CPU.  It 
is marked at $32.49 at Newegg.  It has 12 cores and 24 threads and has a 
good benchmark score.

In the future at some point I would like to build something with 20 plus 
or minus cores and 40 threads more or less for Proxmox.  This would be 
over kills because I only need 1 or 2 VMs active at one time... maybe 3 
in an extreme situation.

This 12 core/24 thread CPU with 64Gb of Ram and a 1Tb SSD would really 
be more resources than I would ever need.  Off the top of my head this 
means I might be able to build a decent Proxmox server for $500 - $600.

I do not need fancy video except for one VM that might be running Win 10 
or 11...  I assume a server grade CPU would handle Win 10 and 11?

Am I on the right track?

Thank You For Your Feedback!!
