Was either this or was Raspberry Pi 5, and this ended up a better cost/performance for me after considering the extra accessories I'd need for the PI.

think about what you use RaspberryPi for (HomeAutomation, DVR recording, Plex, ~2-10W usage) - at this price range ($100-$150), these N100 chips offer much better CPU/expandability while also power efficient (5-20W)
obviously you can pay more, eg Asus miniPC series or Minisforum series. but is worth extra cost (see PN64 example below)

PN62S has thunderbolt but 8th-10th gen U chip, $150refurb to $350 new
PN64 has 12th gen CPU, $350+, i3 1200P with triple passmark score compared to N100 (but also triple the price). 8W idle, 50+W load

It appears with some AMD iGPU (Ryzen 7900 in this example) it does provide a good experience, but it's still not as consistent as the Intel experience: https://forums.unraid.n
There's a reason Plex says: *Note: Our hardware-transcoding system has technical support for many dedicated AMD graphics cards, but we haven't done official, full testing on those. Support for AMD GPUs is provided "as is" and your mileage may vary. It is recommended that you use Intel Quick Sync Video or a dedicated NVIDIA GPU." here: https://support.plex.tv/articles/...streaming/
The basic problem is the HIGHLY varied experience; for many it just doesn't work: https://www.reddit.com/r/PleX/com...ding_is_a/.

Hate to burst your bubble but it's not just Ryzen 7000 that can hw transcode. My 5600G does a great job. Still, the n100 is an amazing chip for $100 and you just can't go wrong with it.
And if Plex doesn't support it, most worryingly, there's no guarantee it will continue to work, even halfway as it does now.
If you're doing Plex, Intel iGPU is the best solution, bar none.

Windows keys can be embedded in the motherboard firmware like what Windows does with any digital activation or can be easily done with UEFI flashing.

Thanks for info. The PN64 is nice, but where are you seeing it for only $350?
Amazon has it for $360 and $369, one left each, different listings
Mitxpc.com has it for $350 (plus shipping?) . Unknown vendor
PN64-E1 has usb4/TB port, but more $
