April 25, 20233 yr Hello there, First off all sorry for my bad English. I need unraid to just personal photos and videos (1080) , at the moment I'm using AMD athlon x250 , with jellyfin and Syncthing (to sync photos from mobile). Biggest issue i have is loading the photos on jellyfin even selecting 100 per page or 50 takes long time to load every single one and when selecting/opening 1 of them takes time to show the photo. Video takes some time using the android app but i discover if i use web browser video runs smooth. Wondering upgrading hardware ,dont need to much just to be able to search/watch my photos/videos with at least less waiting time. Hardware requirements need to run as quiet as possible and power efficient. Heard the Pentium GOLD G6405 2-Core , should be enough, is this true or i need something better ? Can anyone please help me picking up at least a motherboard+CPU ? Thank you in advance ! 😃

April 25, 20233 yr Author Hi there ! Thank you for your fast reply! Can you point me to the right motherboard for that cpu ? Thanks again!

Generally, these are MBs that support 10th and 11th generation Intel CPUs. I am currently putting together a build with the Asrock H510M-ITX/ac motherboard which list the Pentium Gold G6405 as a supported CPU (with BIOS revision P1.10). Edited April 25, 20233 yr by Hoopster
April 25, 20233 yr Author Thank you Hoopster !! I was checking stores in my country and i can get a Ryzen 3200g for the same price of G6405 , is this better or worse ? Thanks again !!

That depends on whether or not you need to do hardware video transcoding and what media management software you are using. I use Plex and it supports the Intel iGPUs such as the iGPU in the Pentium Gold G6405 but it does not support AMD/Ryzen iGPU like in the 3200G. If Jellyfin supports the 3200G then it is a good option if you need hardware transcoding. I don't know much about Jellyfin. Check CPU comparison sites to compare two CPUs side by side. Here is one comparison. Look for which CPUs gives you the most of what is important to you. Edited April 25, 20233 yr by Hoopster
