Android OS installed on a pc

[DigitalMedia 6]

Has anyone tried this installed on a pc and use it for hosting an emby server   https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=androidx86

Tempted to try this on a new build computer I don't yet own. I currently have a budget of $600 and wanted to build a pc that has 32gigs of ram, is this possible ? Any help is appreciated tyvm.

I would think this mobo is a great deal also can use up to 64gigs of ram   https://www.newegg.com/asus-prime-a320i-k/p/N82E16813119200

If someone could find a better deal im open to any help.

Hi, Just curious, but is this strictly for Emby or do you plan on running a lot of other things on this box?
Android would not be my first choice for my main Emby installation (just me) but especially on a PC.  Android would probably be my last choice as I'd go windows, linux, synology close, true nas or similar first.

Why would you want to run Android on a PC, besides testing apps?

I thought it may be faster, I have a windows 7 disk I could install but need help in building a pc. The only thing it would be running is emby and a vpn that is shared through a router connected to it as a wifi repeater sharing the vpn to router via ethernet port. I like connecting all my devices this way instead of a ddwrt router running vpn as ive only had issues.

Likely no chance it would be faster than Windows or Linux which are tried and true OSes for PCs.
