ServeTheHome: This NUC does not Suck

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4dXpAuyZ9A

tl;dw Panther Lake SoC is a decent CPU with a very good GPU and NPU. with 18A, power consumption is good. plus: 2x DDR5 SODIMM, 2x m.2, 2x 2.5GbE.

@bjoern @homelab Lenovo ThinkCentre Mini? I quite like them and they can usually be found quite cheaply on eBay (eg, £50-60 for a 700 with an i5 6500T/8GiB/256GB SSD).

Patrick from ServeTheHome with an update on some developments at the low end of the 10-gigabit Ethernet ecosystem:

* a new low(er) power Realtek chip which consumes 2-3 watts and only requires PCIe gen4 x1

* a couple small fanless #10GbE switches for $300 or less

#ServeTheHome takes a look at the first 1-liter PC to (unofficially) support 128GB of RAM, the Lenovo M75q Tiny Gen5.

reviewed unit has an AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 8700GE processor, 35 watt TDP.

overall a very promising Proxmox box, only stumbling blocks are that it still ships with 1Gbps ethernet, and SATA is no longer supported.

Apparently the #servethehome guy is a big baby and deletes all the Youtube comments that mention #xAI Memphis smog problem. What a bootlicker.

done reading #ServeTheHome
they dig into WAY too much highend enterprise shit, just do not give a fuck anymore.

I wish they did more SOHO / homelab / small business level content again. Something ACTUALLY interesting.

If anyone knows of a tech site that covers gear/releases/reviews from companies like MikroTik/Ubiquiti/similar-tier stuff, I'd love to know.

Not to mention they fucked over RSS readers by shoving the entire article into just a link now. And their captcha form is broken. done.

@hohokam I think its generally accepted now that the time of the pi is over as its price for the 5 has increased to such a point there are equally low power x86 systems available in the similar ballpark price wise.
Look into the #tinyminimicro series from #servethehome and intel n100 small form factor pcs.
