Are you definitely tied to the form factor? Because for $20 more you can get a much more capable mini PC.
Right idea, but I'd suggest getting dell or lenovo mini pcs instead. Saves you a bit of cash and you can get a semi-recent (low tdp) i5 + 8gb ram + whatever ssd the seller will throw you. They run 80ish USD before tax iirc
This option didn’t work for me because I needed Alder Lake Quick Sync support.
