Hi, I'm looking to buy a small computer to upgrade my setup for selfhosted servers. Right now I'm running containers directly on my qnap nas but I would like to migrate most of them on a dedicated server. I'm looking for something that could run docker with stuff like plex, arrr apps, Torrenring, wireguard, vault garden and more. I would like for that server to be very power efficient, something running with as low as 65w TDP or less and also I would like it to be a small computer, something like beelink or Lenovo tiny form factor for example . I looked some small pc from Lenovo, Dell, hp and as I understood it is a bit messy with the power usage depending of the cpu. So I was wondering what would me options be here? Is there other people here who also wanted to run power efficient servers if yes what did you found?

I have a beelink ser6 non pro and also this Um773

They both should be more than enough to run what you want.

There is also something like this if you want lower power but I'm kind waiting out a 64gb ddr5 model.

Lastly this is a good read if you want name brand stuff.
