This post is a bit borderline, so I can take it down if you think it’s inappropriate for this community (tag @otter@lemmy.ca for a faster response). These computers are often suggested by various selfhosting tutorials so it might be interesting to see how they’re made.

    I have a beelink very similar if not the same as the ones they are building in the video. It’s my primary desktop. I purchased it after my tower died. I have an n100 that is my plex, *arr platform and VPN. Works very very well…

    I would not think twice about buying another beelink.

    The ONLY thing I don’t like about it is having to finish the install of windows before you can wipe the ssd.

    But other than that. Gravy.

    I bought one of the extremely generic ones with the heatsink build into the top and it lasted a single month.

    Id have expected thousands of cheap ARM boards with 8 core cpu’s by now for cheap, instead raspberry pi’s are now over 100$.
