Will this be overkill or otherwise not recommended for someone who is new and just starting to learn?

My goal is to have something I can grow into, but initially I'd like to host a few VMs, game servers, and a have place to store content. I'd also like to host a PLEX server in the future as well but might buy a separate piece of hardware for it specifically down the road. Thanks in advance for taking the time to help a newbie!

I just checked and I stand corrected. 325w but I have a BUNCH of VMs going on it.

Yeah, not fair to compare with my idle numbers. It’s not running because of solar Power shenanigans
