small server that will expand disks as needed
primary use is hosting a Plex server with no more then 2-3 local steams and maybe 1 or 2 web streams in 720 and 1080
already have 8g of ddr4 ecc, and im preferring something in 1151 c326
i cant decide on one of 2 CPUs or the mobos. at first glance any configuration of these will do what i need but this is my first FN box
Xeon e-3 1220 v6

and i'm looking at a couple of mobos

Asus p10s V4L

cost wise i really like the Asus but i can tell SM seems to be highly suggested here.
anyone had any issues with Referb CPUs or used ones from ebay?
