Mate no need for any xeon or a hi end config. You can do that on regular amd and intel desktop platforms as well.
Just make sure you have ample of ram--min. 8gb or so.
Gpu not essential but a basic one will make sure you get to use the whole installed ram.

Look around for used quad phenoms or i3s.

A friend use to practise on a Intel c2d with 8gb ram hassle-free!
