  • If you were going to plug a computer into a TV pretty much permanently for source material (pornhub, youtube, etc) would you get something like those micro PC things (Intel NUC?) or should I just treat myself or my partner to a new laptop and use an old laptop for it?
    She could probably do with a new laptop soon but that would also mean having to deal with her old one as the TV source unit. I guess if I cleaned it up and tweaked it a bit it could be ok. We're using that now for the most part. I guess I'm asking if those NUC/micro PC thingies are worth it for media playing duties

  • Don't know if you specifically want a PC but older Mac Minis are cheap now.

    I got a 2012 recently for exactly this (the last model where RAM/discs can be upgraded).

    It's an A1347 with the most powerful processor they had at the time (i7-3720QM 2.6Ghz), 16Gb of RAM, a 120Gb SSD and 1Gb HDD. Easily upgraded to Sonoma with Opencore Legacy Patcher. It was £120 delivered in grade A condition and looks a lot nicer than a PC :P

  • Yeah, thanks, but deffo no Macs for me.

    I just need to find one of those black HP SFF PCs for cheapz now.

    and probably buy another couple of mechanical keyboards so my wireless one can be used with it.
