Hi,

 

i am planning to build a plex server in a "small" case.

I looked at different cpu's with a good passmark score so first i wanted to go with a xeon but then i thought about the skylakes and their low power comsumption.
So for a small case packed with HDD's i thought maybe the i7-6700T would be the better option its small and does not need much power, does someone have some information regarding the heat it is generating?

You don't need an I7 for a plex server....

i know that i dont need an i7, it is just the fastest of Skylake T Series so i reckon it will generate the most heat and if i push it

Get an i3 or pentium like @paradigm249 said and they wont be near as hot
