If it's a home server doing not much most of the time, an intel skull/hade canyon can be a good choice. It can be really powerful when it needs to be, is effectively a laptop cpu the rest of the time, so not drawing much power. The only inconvenience is that it has no ipmi and it becomes really loud under heavy load. Also you can sort of get 10gbe through a thunderbolt adapter but I ran into some compatibility issues with hyper-v.
