definetly bazzite gaming htpc if you get a sufficient gpu in it. stream games from it ota.
if you take advantage of this amount of ram to virtualize, you could do both that and a server simultaneously, maybe more, you have 2 gpus and network that can be assigned independently.
the only downside would be power consumption if kept on, but that cpu can definetly handle more server stuff than you would expect.
i think you can also get one of those chinese xeons for dirt cheap on aliexpress and it might work as a hefty upgrade if you really need more cores for a few coins.
what distros are confident enough to enable it by default atm?
