Oh thanks I must have missed that in the title.
The xeon does have more cache too. So if the GPU acceleration is the make or break it option. You could toss a card in there.

I’m assuming you’re talking about version 1 of the 2620.
Although the xeon is the weaker processor, if you’re planning on having those containers active together the larger thread count will potentially be more beneficial than the faster i7.
But this is one of those things where you’d need to test against both and see. Since there’s a bunch at play.
I’m assuming the xeon comes with ECC ram?
I’d decide based on how loud it’s gonna make my homelab, if I get to use ECC ram and the type of workload being applied.
Since you’re just looking to make a router the xeon would be my tentative choice.
I haven’t tried setting up jellyfin myself. However, if you’re able to use pcie passthrough on your container, you could probably use any spare card you might have? (assuming it fits and your psu can handle it)
