A ThinkCentre M92P can be had for < €100 on eBay, like even down to €40-70. I'm not saying you shouldn't use a RPi if you already have them, but RPi has not been worth it going back to the RPi3. If anyone needs to get hardware to setup their server, the tiny/mini/micro lines are better.

I was put off of RPis since the RPi3 too, the way they misled people with their marketing about it having a gigabit port which was on a shared bus so it was not really true put me off of them. And Pine64 boards have been better going back to then with the RockPro over the RPi3, and the RockPro64 way better than the RPi4.
