Over Synology, and looking to build my first home lab. Could use some advice on parts... (pcpartpicker.com)

I currently have a Synology 220+ and a couple of VPS's, and I'm looking to consolidate, while getting out of Synology's walled garden. I've already got a couple of 3.5's in the Synology, and 4 2.5's lying around and I'm planning on running a number of docker containers and a couple of vms.

That said, I've never built anything before, and basically just went to PCPartPicker, started with the case, and checked 5-stars on each component and went from there. So... how absurd is my build?

Just home assistant doesn't move the needle. The llms hit the igpu hard and my cpu usage spikes to 70-80% when one is thinking.

But my llms i'm running are ollama and invokeai each with several different models just for fun.
