    Yeah you’re definitely in overkill territory but it’s nice to have extra potential in your system for new services or if you want to play around with VMs, containers, etc. What I find is most common for home server setups is that their CPUs are overprovisioned and memory is under provisioned. In a home server context there’s a TON of CPU downtime but a lot of simultaneous services running consuming memory but not really doing much. But I see you’ve got plenty RAM to spare here so if you want to tone down the cost anywhere I’d say the best place is to tone down the CPU.
