Old PC Homelab Motherboard Replacement Considerations?

I’m fairly green at self-hosting, recently upgraded to running Proxmox on an old PC from OMV. A fairly simple setup for Plex, Nextcloud, PiHole, and some docker containers. I have an old Ryzen 5 2600 I’d like to replace the current CPU with (an even older FX-8350), but I’ll need a new motherboard with an AM4 socket....

Ram capacity, and a solid Ethernet nic with support in your target os are my number 1. # of sata/nvme connectors would priority 2. of course cpu compatibility like you mentioned. I have had good luck over the years with inexpensive or even used mobos. I tend to spend more on the psu than mobo. Make sure you run some stress tests after you install it to help identify any failed components on the board. ``
