Mytre 1 Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 So, today I finally reached the boiling point for my setup, I currently have my own main desktop for work, games and media server using a 3600x with 32gb of ram and a dedicated 2tb HDD for all my movies and shows. I have managed tgo get by as on my house we only use it for 1080p movies and I use handbrake to transcode everything to the best possible format so a full movie goes to 5GB or less with subtitles. However I need to start adding more drives on my rig for work related stuff and I cannot use the sever anymore on it as my workloads on the VM's are eating all the cpu. So I am about to pull the trigger on the deskmini a300w, which has a wifi AC antenna ( my current setup uses an intel wifi ac with a ac router, no issues whatsoever with 2 or 3 streams in house and an stream outside the network). get a m2 256gb ssd for both windows and emby, a 2tb hybrid drive for movies and shows and a spare 1tb 2.5 drive for keeping files before transcoding. My question is the cpu , I have about 3 options, 2400g, 3200g, or 3400g. However I have no idea if a 3200g would be capable of sustaining 3 to 4 streams at the same time. What metric can I use to know how many streams can a cpu do? the device will run windows 10 so it can run most of my scripts to automate transcoding of files and all of that.

Mytre 1 Posted January 3, 2020 Author Share Posted January 3, 2020 Why g and not x? I have an old 1600x lying around, but I wnat the small form factor of the deskmini and my budget is not big, any itx board for a 1600x alongside the sfx psu pushes me out of just getting a 2400g ,3200g or 3400g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
