    I am interested in setting up a media server. I have a PC running Linux Mint. It has a older ASRock motherboard Q1900-ITX. It has a Intel Quad-Core processor (2 Ghz), with Intel 7th  generation (Gen 7) graphics. My LAN connection is hardwired 100 MB/s cabling to a 2.5 Gigabit switch connected to a ASUS router. This cabling from the Router/switch to this PC is next room away.  Man feed to router is 1 Gigabit.

    My main PC (in another room) on this network is running Windows 11.

    If this is a good machine for the purpose I am envisioning and would it be a good thing to add a more high performance graphics card (PCI Express 2.0)?

    While I am somewhat technical, I am limited on some more detailed issues.

    any input much appreciated.

    If you're not transcoding that setup can probably work, mainly for 1080p h264/h265 videos.

    Adding a PCIe 2.0 GPU won't be a much improvement if the CPU or RAM could be a bottleneck.
