Want to build my first homelab to run proxmox, maybe OPNsense, docker, building allot of VM’s.

I read ServeTheHome’s TinyMiniMicro project and think one of em would be a good place to start. I ruled out HP to due to some bios config that needs to be done in the beginning(which is also the general opinion i’ve found on reddit). So i’ve narrowed it down to Lenovo Tiny or Dell Micro. Which ones would be better suited for my use?

Also, what CPU, and how much RAM should i be looking to get?

Thanks :)

Edit: I’d also appreciate any recommendations on a switch, and a router just to learn the basic principles of networking and get my hands dirty.
