I do the same, but with Dell 7060s.
There are thousands of them coming off lease for sale here in Australia.
8500T or 8700T chips are fantastic. They can officially run Windows 11 and have have hardware transcoding built
In, so are great for a Plex server!
I’ve upgraded one of mine with 2x 2GB SSD and 64GB RAM.
Never any issues and it runs 247.

- logicprog 3y agoI have a Dell Optiplex 7050 I'm using as a video streaming server and even that generation has hardware transcoding capabilities for all modern formats except AV1, and can do them fast enough for basic streaming too. Six 1080p simultaneous video streams from personal testing before any lag or stutter begins to creep in. And I know that the Intel integrated gpus of the generation after — so what would be in the 7060s I believe — got like a 4x boost in video transcoding performance as Intel kind of figured things out and optimized things, so yeah 7060 would probably be really good.
