Advice for a [performance] nettop
Posted: Fri Feb 18, 2011 3:34 am
Hello everyone,
I need some piece of advice concerning a PC to be attached to a 42" monitor and find some kind of bracket that allows me to mount monitor+PC to the wall.
My requirements are pretty strict:
1) The PC cannot be an ION based platform since it must run a quite CPU intensive application. Until now I've only trusted other solutions (based on Intel E7500 or i3) with dedicated graphic card. What's your opinion on a switch to an ION (also dual-core) platform?
2) The PC size should be the smallest possible. Zotacs and Acers suggested in this thread would be perfect but break requirement #1
3) I still have to find a VESA compatible bracket that allows me to host a PC *and* let me mount everything on the wall (and bear the whole weight)
3) The GPU shall be a discrete chipset (no IntelHD whatsoever), able to provide a smooth fullHD experience
4) Power consumption and noise are not an issue (given the other it was obvious)
Thanks for any hint!
