Nvidia is the only game in town right now. I decided on a 3090 for the time being, with the option of adding another one later. I think in two years we will have 100x better options specifically tailored for AI.

It's notepad with extra steps.
I think it's very overkill and you're going to be sitting at like 10-15% cpu when it's done. But for projects like this saving a few bucks is not worth it. You need room to grow.
I just ordered an ASRock DeskMeet/Ryzen 5 4600G/32gb 3200Mhz DDR4 ($350 all together), for basically the same purpose. But I'm going to use a 512gb NVMe and a PCIE 10gb dual NIC I have on hand. (Hopefully the PCIE NIC actually works in that slot.)
I might try to move Frigate and/or Jellyfin to this device later with hardware accelerated encoding. I like having options.
A good 2.5gb NIC is a 10gb NIC. They negotiate whatever speed they can manage with the hardware and wiring they have. I got a dual port 10gb adapter on Amazon for like $80.
I have been struggling with crazy judder for months. Now that there is no community, Jellyfin is unusable.
(The forums are pretty much worthless. I got one response from someone who didn't read my post.)
Even if you just make an alias in pfSense and block its traffic, you're fine.
