Ok so first this is for a co-worker. I have no issues building my own machine but for him I would rather just get an HP or Lenovo.
He has a 120" projector setup in his basement and he wants to be able to have a HTPC house his movies and play them. He wants 4k playback, few drives, etc...
what I do know is my setup (HP Elite 8200 with i7) is more than capable of streaming live tv from my hdhomerun prime on all 3 channels and still play movies (dvrd from hdhomerun) to my xbox 360 and xbox one.... so for me this is enough but im not at 4k.
can you recommend a OEM pc? I know a while ago there are like small servers that are not power hungry that can be had cheap... curious what is out there now...
thx for the input!
