Those FX series had a really bad reputation at the time, but it seems the extra cores have helped them age better than might have been expected. My old FX 6300 is also in a Linux box now hosting a Jellyfin server and it does quite well!

Ha, I was just about to mention the FX-6300 I have running in a server that hosts 3 Minecraft instances. It's not the fastest thing ever but it gets the job done. I was going to replace it when it got too slow, but that hasn't happened yet.
