Except the hardware itself is really old which means that the performance will be much lower and thus the CPU usage will be higher. The older systems also have much slower memory and bus speeds.
You would be much better buying a more modern consumer CPU since the performance boost will mean that the CPU utilization will be lower. Most workloads including Jellyfin do not benefit from tons of slow CPU cores. Things will work better the higher CPU and ram frequently you have.
Server CPUs are a poor choice outside of very specific applications
My E5-2667 v4 (8 cores, higher frequency) using almost nothing of energy while watching some asmr on freetube and responding:
Edit: it has a higher tdp than the 2650 v4, and has 16gb of ddr4 ram
11W is actually a lot lower than what I was expecting. It isn't crazy efficient but it isn't bad.
Are you sure it supports DDR4? The Intel spec page says it has a clock of around 2.5GHz with DDR3 memory
From dmidecode, DDR4:
Edit: Broadwell supports both DDR3 and DDR4, with some caveats
