my 13 years old laptop works good as server. Sometimes he fell asleep when I watch a movie with Jellyfin but it's okey.

Yeah, I have a 5-year old and a 15-year old laptop downstairs acting as servers, and they are runnjng GREAT.

I'm using my old laptop as a PleX server. It does pretty well. It has a GTX1050 in it, so not too bad. Saves me having to put real hardware in my NAS

a gtx1050 is so much better than any gpu ive ever had lmao

The mobile GPUs aren't quite as impressive as the desktop counterparts.

That's pretty wild tbh, it's old. I got it for gaming back in the day before I had a desktop.

i do live in brazil so its hard to get good hardware because os shipping and everythings supposed to be around 5x more expensive than stuff in the us (though in practice, its way worse than that)

my brother got lucky and got an rtx 2060 super at the end of the pandemic. the best gpu ive ever had was a gtx750 ti that simply stopped working, meaning im now stuck with no gpu, an i5 6500 and 16GB of ram (my brother got himself more ram and sold a 16GB stick to me that he was using)
