Not like it will be multi-tasking. And the dual core celeron only draws 10 watts, super quiet fan, easily cooled, long life. Insane where chip miniaturization/efficiency has taken us. A dual core processor, on board video supporting 4k res, on board audio, lan and wifi, and it only draws maybe 25 watts peak. Crazy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 If it's only working as a file server, yes, I agree. He was implying its supposed processing capabilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who was? Where? I outlined my goals as a music server. You replied I would be better off with a more powerful processor in the nuc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Well, it's your money, and not very much at that. For sure you don,'t need an i9. 😑 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJkizak Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 I don't need 4 computers either but I couldn't throw all those old parts away. So now I have 4 old computers that will make a nice fire. JJK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So now I have 4 old computers that will make a nice fire. JJK Bout 6-8 months ago, I put in my trash a silver Lion Li aluminum full size tower case, PS, mobo, processor, ram, excetera. Old single core AMD processor. Been sitting in a closet for years. Took out the old mag HD and destroyed it with a maul, and pitched it too in a later pickup. Still have a black alum case Lion Li rig in the closet, older Intel two core build. I have spent too much money on computer parts/builds over the years. But it was fun, better than drugs or something. Sooner or later if you don't touch it for 3 or 4 years, it gets donated or trashed. My new mantra. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
