Dell Optiflex 3060

[bitmap]

I used an OptiPlex 3080 (?) as my last server before I built my own and was pretty impressed with the results. Some issues with 4K and complex formats (multiple transcode reasons, high --> low bitrate, video + subtitle or audio) but overall it was pretty solid. Get rid of any outdated low-pro dGPU if the model you get comes with it, as it likely won't do you any good, but the 8th gen Core processor will treat you right and has solid support in whatever ecosystem you choose (but go with Linux).
