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.

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

Because i share all this stuff with my friends
But, BIG CAVEAT, the inventory system WALMART is using is ENTIRELY unreliable, so it really doesn't matter (see my post above).
It was so bad where I used to live that a District manager was doing this and so the inventory on scarce items was more or less meaningless. He would move from store to store till he bought them at the lowest possible price.
Not saying that it isn't more money and that more money isn't nice or anything, but it just *seems* such a low marginal return on investment compared to their main/regular job.
(but maybe I'm wrong about that)

It's a brown HP box. Bottom shelf. $249.

Although I would make sure it was Gen 4 able. I see little need for Gen 4. Gen 3 is very fast.

How big of a difference am I going to see? My current one is getting really slow, especially when my son plays Minecraft.
You're a good parent
