Looking for CPU Inference Hardware (8 Channel Ram Server Motherboards) (alien.top)

Just wondering if anyone with more knowledge on server hardware could point me in the direction of getting an 8 channel ddr4 server up and running (Estimated bandwidth speed is around 200gb/s) So I would think it would be plenty for inferencing LLM's.
I would prefer to go used Server hardware due to price, when comparing the memory amount to getting a bunch of p40's the power consumption is drastically lower. Im just not sure how fast a slightly older server cpu can process inferencing.

If I was looking to run 80-120gb models would 200gb/s and dual 24 core cpu's get me 3-5 tokens a second?

I appreciate the info this is probably the closest to what I am asking for. It seems no matter what I look at unless I have 10,000 to fork over I am going to be restricted in someway or another.
