Used Intel NUCs have a lot more power for the price, I'd check out eBay. They can be a bit sketch though, the one I have I need to keep switching display ports for some reason I can't quite figure out yet.

If it's one with two DisplayPorts or HDMI inputs, I noticed the same thing, loses signal until you unplug the replug into the other input port.

Personally I rate Asus Mini PC's they have AMD CPUs.

I'll try that for my next one, I can hardly get into the bios on this POS.

Well worth it. Barebones kit (bring your own SSD + RAM) is around $250 brand new. Sure you could grab cheaper deals off eBay too. You get much better build quality than the NUC and a Ryzen which kicks the shit out of Intel these days.

Got my node running on one plus a Tor Nostr relay, Nextcloud, Robosats and a few other little things. Doesn't break a sweat.
