I have the opportunity to purchase a computer for my homelab with the idea to expand. the options i am going to mention below fall within budget. Both options are refurbed equipment. I am currently using xcp-ng on my maxed out y540(2tb nvme, 1tb ssd, 64GB RAM, 6c/12t). The current setup has 2 Over-provisioned vCPU's when all the servers are running at once.

OPTION A.
1x Dell Optiplex M70s MT, with 14cores/20threads with RAM expandable to 64 GB
OPTION B.
2x Lenovo Thinkcentre M70s MT with 6cores/12threads with RAM expandable 128GB / each.
Would you go with the Dell for the cores but limited to memory, or would you go with the 2 thinkcentre's with ability to expand the RAM later on.
Apologies for the silly question.
