I have two Optiplex 3060's running in my home lab with Proxmox as the Hypervisor, one with an 8500T (6C/6T) and one with an 8100T (4C/4T). For most server related workloads, physical cores mean more than hyperthreaded ones.
If you need basic needs, you can pick up an 8100T version of the Optiplex / Prodesk / Lenovo for around $120-150. If you want the 6 cores, then you're looking at $160-200. Throw in 32GB of RAM for another $60 or so and you're well ahead of what is posted here.
If you don't care about Plex or Windows 11 and just want a basic thing to play around with, you can get one with an i5 4570T for around $60-75 or an i5 6500T for around $90-100.

I don't know a damn thing about Twitch, but a simple Google search shows that the 8th gen might be able to handle at least 720P smoothly, possibly up to 1080P with the integrated graphics. That said, if you're that worried about it, I'd just go for a SFF PC so you could add a low profile video card, if needed. The SFF ones also take desktop RAM and have higher clocked CPU's
