That processor has a passmark of 13000 or so, which means yes, 6 x 1080p streams is doable. You may want to tell Plex to “Optimize” Ahead of time though so you don’t have to transcode on the fly.

Don’t use a GPU, look for an asrock rack with ipmi instead.

your budget makes it very tough to build new, I’d seriously consider building with used intel server components, see resources section.
