That’s exactly the plan - I’m grabbing some now and I’m going to be like ‘Oh, but the good printer is for photos, sorry hon, we’d need a different printer’

I can grab one through work we are going to get rid of, just need to make room in the home office and explain to my wife why I’m bringing more stuff home lol
Well crap.
Now I have a reason to get a laser printer, I’m not using up my dye sub printer (photos).
Thanks!
Exactly.
Most of these units don’t need (or have) a fan (except for the ones with like an Nvidia quadro in them, but those I keep in my rack for other purposes, like tdarr and work stuff)
Plenty of power for proxmox, containers, whatever. Intel QSV is fantastic for Jellyfin and Plex transcoding, I’d say 7th Gen and up is plenty for most people.
Really any of these little units are well worth it. I’ve got some older ones (4th-6th Gen Intel) doing other duties, like being testbeds, managing backup storage, etc.
I’ve got a slightly older (8th Gen Intel) off lease dell micro in my living room, mostly for early ed games for my kids. A quick user switch and it’s steam time for me.
Cost me about $150, then I tossed about $75 in upgrades, roughly 2 years ago.
Ultra small form factor PCs like this and the beelink are fantastic options. I’ve got a stack of them running all of my home services.
Do you know the name of the fanedit? I’d like to check it out
