What would be the ideal replacement for the above, I can't remember the exact model number of the one I've got but it was one of the first ones (6 or 7 years old at least now I would have thought) and its got a celeron processor in it. It really is slow now and struggles to cope with chrome and youtube etc. maybe still ok for videos but thats about it.

I've got PC's at every TV I've got (5) and most are based on the G4560 processor which is fab but for most of the TV's I can hide an mini ITX in a cupboard or cabinet but the Brix PC needs to sit behind a wall mounted TV.

The Pentium PC's I've got cost circa £300 each so don't want to spend a fortune on a brix type PC. I did actually buy a intel stick PC the other year which was ok at the time but lacked RJ45 connectivity.

Cheers.

Intel NUC, or the new Asus ones with a Ryzen mobile processor in.

Cheers but which one though, i3 or better or which Ryzen CPU, I dont want it to struggle in a couple of years next time Chrome bloats a bit more again.
