I want to set up a virtualization lab at home so I can play with vSphere, ESXi, NAS, and a small Windows domain environment. Looking to have maybe 10 Windows machines running concurrently.

Any recommendations for a good CPU that could handle this? I know Intel has better virtualization features at the moment but AMD's Ryzen line has more cores and threads.
