Question for IT/Security homelabs (alien.top)

For it/security related homelabs, do you often use many vms with little workloads or a few vms with heavy workloads. I'm currently trying to pick between a i5-8700 and i7-9700 cpu for a new homelab setup. Thank you.

I’d think many of us have large amounts of mostly idle cores. 🙂

If I were to start from scratch, I’d pick something power efficient first.

so more cores it'd imagine?
