I was walking around a local Walmart and saw these on an end cap. They had no price tag, so I scanned it with the Walmart app and they came out to $249.99. I picked up 2 and they still had 6 more on the shelf.

Here is the Brickseek Linky [brickseek.com]

Walmart Linky [walmart.com] for Reference

Monitor
24" FHD HP V24i Monitor with an IPS Panel

PC

Also has an M.2 NVME slot (screw not included)

Happy Hunting.

With plexpass hardware transcoding, this uses Intel QuickSync and can handle 22+ 1080 transcodes without issue.

I use an old Celeron with Quicksync. I've personally hit 22 1080p at once. I don't transcode 4k so couldn't give you an estimate there.

It's amazing how many people don't realize this and frequently recommend adding GPUs for Plex. That's not needed and purely a waste of money. Even the Plex subreddit has hoards of individuals frequently recommending a GPU for Plex. Feel free... but it's a waste of money.

edit: Use Linux in this use case to avoid any headaches. I recommend Ubuntu
I picked up two yesterday. No issues. Store had about 14 of them. Works great as entry level for my kids. They can play basic computer games like Roblox and Minecraft on it.
That means they were hidden by employees

How much is the monitor worth realistically?

There is another configuration with the i5 at the same price. But that does NOT have the monitor. Would it be worth getting that one vs the i3?
Item number sku?

Not worth a special trip almost always. If the store has anything it'll likely be the display model.

Seems like a good deal. I keep telling myself that my i7-4790k is doing just fine, but based on passmark this i3 is faster.

Makes me excited for when I finally build a new PC, when video cards are a little easier to get and a little cheaper.

I picked up two Samsung Chromebook 4+ the other day for $74 each when a store showed 2-3, so I'd say there's a good chance. They had a new one and the demo boxed up... Brickseek went to OOS by the time I was back to the car, so it seems to be close to realtime now.

Luck. I was looking for something for the kid and came across it on the local store inventory on the web site. It has the crappy TN panel and is larger than I wanted, but the price was right.

Follow the thread. It's for a Chromebook listed in my post, off topic.

The Guideline
Very roughly speaking, for a single full-transcode of a video, the following PassMark score requirements are a good guideline for the following average source file:
4K HDR (50Mbps, 10-bit HEVC) file: 17000 PassMark score (being transcoded to 10Mbps 1080p)
4K SDR (40Mbps, 8-bit HEVC) file: 12000 PassMark score (being transcoded to 10Mbps 1080p)
1080p (10Mbps, H.264) file: 2000 PassMark score
720p (4Mbps, H.264) file: 1500 PassMark score

https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu....Hz&id=3717 [cpubenchmark.net]

Average CPU Mark
8825
Intel Core i310100 Processor 6M Cache up to 4.30 GHz Product Specifications [intel.com]

This processor supports QuickSync hardware encoding, so given a file it supports (and a PlexPass,) it can do a heck of a lot more than that.

It's seriously ymmv. My local store said 3-4 in stock, so i went. I didn't see any on the floor (only display model) so i asked the guy if they had any, he immediately knew and said no.

How many streams on Plex could this handle?

As long as your clients are set to request a direct stream, and your bandwidth can handle the upstream, it can easily do as many as you need. Now transcoding is a completely different story which appears to have already been addressed.
