Turnkey server recommendations happily accepted...

thanks in advance... I am running Blue Iris with 12 (mostly 3mp hikvision) cameras, and not wanting to build custom or tweak things, I would appreciate suggestions for a store-bought computer that will be better than the recycled desktop I am currently squeaking by with!

I just bought a Dell 7050 Small form factor with an m.2 os boot drive, 17 7700K 8gb ram, got this at the dell outlet under scratch and dent and the thing was brand new. Doing this enabled me to drop in a WD purple 4tb and the overall cost was 800 ish but it runs my 6 cameras at 15% load on 25 fps(overkill). I should note that it only runs blue iris.
