Hi,
I'm looking to get a new home PC for the living room that will largely be used to surf the internet, watch media and all that standard stuff.
Requirements:
- Need to sit horizontally and be relatively small / slim
- Not *too* loud, i.e. no fans making you feel like a plane is taking off
As such, been looking at the mini pcs (unless there are other options on here too) but am torn between the various options - NUC, Mini PC and the fanless build.
Across all 3, it seems like I can get a decent i5, 16GB and a 1TB SSD for £650-700 with perhaps the mini PC offering most bang for buck in terms of spec (??).
Any advice on pros vs cons and how to make the decision?
