Old Epyc boards are super cheap on eBay. 8 channels of ddr4 and 80-100 lanes of pcie for nvme on an ATX mobo. You pay for the idle power consumption, but it's pretty cheap overall.

I'm just going with a Ryzen 1600x system because I have one on hand

My current system has a pair of 12 thread Xeon CPUs and I really don't need them, plus I'm wanting to go with normal consumer hardware for the new system for repairability reasons
