Best Processor for a Proxmox VE Build

[Schulz2380]

Hello AMD vs Intel here let me know what you would use in a Proxmox build. Want to run 4 VM easy at one time if I have the need too. How much ram would be over kill. [ Proxmox = free VM Workstation ]

P.S I been a AMD guy for years. Intel prices scare me but, what should I get if I go I go Big....

Any info will help.
Amd = More cores
Intel = about 4 before cost get huge..
* Must support VM Tech

8 GB RAM is good, more is better (grab as much as possible)

Fast hard drives, best results with 15k rpm SAS, Raid10
Two or more Gbit NIC (for bonding), additional NIC´s depending on the preferred storage technology and cluster setup
