Comment on Building my first NAS: Assistance on part selection please
Zwuzelmaus@feddit.org 4 days agoSo I have looked up your board and CPU specs.
The board is probably Ok. Regarding the CPU, I found some alternatives:
5750GE with better specs in everything, especially 8 cores 16 threads, lower TDP of 35W and just a little higher price, or
5700G also at higher specs, equal TDP of 65W and half the price.
My own personal choice is something different and harder to find (only on aliexpress so far): itx board with a preinstalled 5825U at 8 cores and TDP of 15W.

Very helpful, thank you! The CPU choice has had to be remade anyways as I have mentioned in other places in this thread.
Looking at the 5750GE it seems to be OEM-only, so I’m not sure where to reputably get my hands on that.
The 5700G looks very intriguing, it’s only barely more expensive compared to the last price of the 4650G I saw. If I find nothing else, I’ll probably go with that one then.
I am still concerned about wattage though, I struggled to find any regular CPUs with a notably lower TDP than 65W - although I’d honestly be most intrigued by what it draws at idle-ish, because if it’s like a <5W difference there I wouldn’t bother… but of course idle changes depending on the system so not like that can be properly listed anywhere.
Do you potentially also have any Intel suggestions? Other people here mentioned an AMD iGPU might cause problems with Jellyfin.
