Hardware review - Ila_S - 2024-05-16 Hi! I'm new to media servers in general, but I'm long overdue to buy one and I finally have the cash available. I'm planning on building a new computer mainly for Jellyfin and torreting, and I'm thinking of some hardware like: - Intel Core i3-14100F (It's only 20 bucks more than the 13100F) - Intel Arc AXX (I'm unsure if there is a differece for transcoding between them) - 2 x 8GB DDR4 3200 - Some Micro ATX motherboard with a H610 Chipset - Some 80PLUS Gold power supply - Some M.2 SSD to store OS and Jellyfin - 4 x Seagate IronWolf HDD of 4TB - SilverStone CS382 There should be 2 to 3 users for Jellyfin and I would need to transfer ~6TB of media from my PC. I would happly accept recommendations and changes to my build. I'm planning to spend ~1500USD on it. RE: Hardware review - TheDreadPirate - 2024-05-16 All good choices......and not because they are mostly identical to my setup. ![]() The entire Arc line up has the same media engine and number of media engines. So getting an A770 will not make a difference over the A310. Where things change is tone mapping, which is VRAM intensive. The A380 is a good middle ground. The 6GB of VRAM can handle 5-6 tone mapped transcodes. For plain transcoding, my testing resulted in about 20 simultaneous transcodes. |
