Looking for low-power Mini PC recs for a beginner homelab
Finally getting into self hosting and wanna build a small homelab in my apartment.
Nothing too crazy, mostly Docker containers, a media server, and basic networking stuff while I learn.
Been looking at low-power mini PCs and the GEEKOM A5 with the 7430U caught my eye. Seems like it should be enough for a beginner setup, but I wanted to ask before buying.
Mainly care about low power draw, stability, and decent noise levels. Would something like this make sense or should I look at something else instead?
