8700t 6c/12t vs 9700t 8c/8t for Proxmox VM’s ?
Will the 12 threads be more efficient/performant than the 8 big threads ?
This is going in a sff desktop.
What about the non t/k 65 watt variant. Same result ?
Any input is welcome !

8 “real” threads every time :). Non-T versions will give you slightly higher base clocks but could potentially push the cooling solution if you put all the cores under load. What kind of VMs are you running on the host?
I want to try out kupernetties, play around with windows and ubuntu servers, try out pf sense ect. Possibly run plex/freenas on one of them.
Yeah if it’s nothing too heavy duty (like tons of busy game servers or other heavy-cpu workloads) then the 9700t should do just fine likely run out of RAM before you’ll run out of CPU.
Wait, you can host game servers?
Adding this to the checklist!
Haha yeah, that’s what my own host at home mostly does, which is why it has a really odd spec (12700k / 128GB ECC). Need all the single threaded performance I can get for the games my friend group(s) seems to be most interested in! Some dedicated game servers are relatively lightweight on a host (Valheim, small population Minecraft, Conan Exiles), some games are … not (late game Satisfactory, Space Engineers).
