[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1247898, member: 109222"] Hi. Don't think so. It's very outdated hardware (around 13 years old). I have an old laptop with similar specs and it is not capable of playback Full HD content smoothly. You can use the FullHD resolution for screen, but the encoding of HD video material is too much for the system... Aside this the C2D CPU are very energy consuming. Those days no one has thought about energy saving in Computer area. So you need to pay much more than needed for electric power over the years. I definitely would not waste any money on such outdated hardware, not a single penny... Get yourself a more or less recent NUC or Mini-ITX SOC system as client. This is the much better choice...
