I'm putting together my first Proxmox build to replace some laptops I have. Will be used as a Plex Server and NVR (Blue Iris) to start but I'm sure I will expand on what it's used for in the future. I was planning to put in an i3-13100 but I can get an i5-13400 for ~$100 CDN more. Is it worth it? This started as a low consumption replacement for workstation laptops but would the extra two performance cores and the 4 efficiency cores be a big benefit? I know the 13400 has a higher TDP but if it's not running full out will the power consumption differ much from the 13100?

Thoughts?
