Alas, I need to be able to mount a GPU on it for transcoding. If that weren't the case... Also, I already have the 64GB(4X16) DDR4 RAM and the Ryzen 9 5900, plus the server does get loaded by multiple people and runs proxmox plus 2 VMs, one of them with 20+ docker containers.Don't restrict yourself to Supermicro and have a look at this thread.
AM4 with IPMI: Gigabyte MC12-EC0, 55 E + shipping, with cooler.
Even cheaper, as it already includes the CPU and uses RDIMM, but with limited expandability: Gigabyte MJ11-EC1, should come out just under 100 E with a SFF-8654 4i to 4*SATA breakout cable from eBay (China) and a quiet 60 mm fan.
