EQI12

honestly those are all pretty light workloads, you dont need much. a beelink ser5 or eq12 would be plenty - they go for like $150-250 on amazon and have decent cpus. or if you want even cheaper, grab a used lenovo thinkcentre tiny or dell optiplex micro off ebay for like $80-100. either way 16gb ram

BeeLink EQ12 here and it's perfect for OPNsense. At least until I desire >1Gbps from the ISP. I can always go 2.5+ for my LAN anyway

Obviously it depends on what you are planning to do with it. If it’s all very basic and you need to learn still, I would personally go with an intel i3-1220p or i5-1235U and 16-32GB of RAM with an SSD of around 500-1TB.

beelink s12 / eq12 is the sweet spot for that stack. n100 transcodes 1080p without breaking a sweat and handles 4k hevc-to-h264 via qsv. go 16gb ram minimum — immich's ml container alone wants 4gb when it's generating clip embeddings, and nextcloud preview generation can spike pretty hard if you've

I started with USB coral on Beelink EQ12 (N100) then with an HP Elite Desk 800 G3? (i5-8500), then a dual coral on pcie, and a month or two ago an Intel Ultra 5-125h ($500 mini pc PELADN Mini PC,Core Ultra 5 125H Mini Desktop Computer, 32GB Dual DDR5/512GB M.2 PCIe 4.0 SSD). I have 9 cameras. I was

for under 00 the Beelink EQ12 or similar n100 mini PCs are hard to beat right now. you get a quad core, 16GB RAM, 500GB NVMe, and they idle around 8W. throw Proxmox on it and you can run a handful of LXC containers for your common services. if you want more storage options, an older Optiplex SFF wit

As the owner of a Beelink EQ12 which I could never get to run reliably I'm not surprised. I think in this space you get what you pay for

Trigkey Green G5. I have read that it is the same as Beelink EQ12 but cheaper due to branding.

for remote access with 4K content, hardware transcoding is what makes or breaks it. the good news is you don't need to spend much — an N100-based mini PC (beelink eq12 or s12 pro) runs around $150-200 and handles jellfin hardware transcode with intel quicksync no problem. for storage on a budget i'd
