Overkill for starter build? - eviltoast

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 have been thinking about this myself.

    The question I have is there any reason to get a rack server?

    Also, would it make sense to get multiple and put them in a cluster?

    Are any rackmount servers low power? or is this just an unrealistic expectation.
