[Refurb] Lenovo ThinkCentre M910q i5 6500T 256GB NVMe 12GB RAM W10P $112 (eBay Plus $109.20 Delivered) @ Bufferstock eBay

660
REFRB20REFRB22

Excellent config for the price, and it comes with NVMe. Just the components are worth more than the computer.
Based on the seller's older post, I would assume the RAM is 8GB + 4GB

Personally, this would make a better Plex server than N95. Something to consider is the higher wattage of 35W compared to 5W of N95.

If you get two, there is an extra 10% off on 2nd item (effective 5%). Paid AU $207.48 for two.

  • Bargain.

    FFS… don't know why I just bought this.

    • I just picked up two.

      • AU $207.48?

        • $212.80, non plus.

    • hopefully not for windows 11.

  • What is this good for?

    • +13

      It's good at being a mini pc

      Buy now find uses later

    Sold out already… only 15 units -_- someone bought like 10

    • There were 6 oeft when i checked, 17 likes probably all snapped up by most of them.

      • I pressed like and logged in to OZB after I added to cart. Back to cart and gone :'(
        When I added to cart, it didn't show the qty left so I assume was more than 10 at the time

        • +2

          Bugger, rookie mistake, buy now like later haha. Was surprised there were any left when I clicked.

      You will see those 10 on Facebook marketplace next week

    • ready to be flipped

  • Can this handle 2K video and export to 1080p using Capcut?

    • Depends on codec and bitrate.
      h265 and h264 hardware encoding supported with the 530 graphics. Again if you want to live encode, depends on frame rate, codec and bitrate

      • I'm using dji action 2. Settings is 2.7k 30fps. Editing in Capcut and exporting to 1080p. My current PC from 2014 with 8Gb ram and GTX 750ti LP card won't even play the video using VLC player. Just starting a YT channel so don't want to spend to much on PC in case it won't work out. Thanks.

        • +3

          In that case I recommend grabbing a 1060 or RX580 for $70 on FB marketplace and just replacing the card. At least you can game on it if you want in the future. This mini box it is what it is. Expansion is limited.

          If you really want something new, get a full tower so you can upgrade graphics card in future if you want.

          6500T should be fine for hardware encode. Just wait a little while longer for the encodes. SSD would also help with scribing through the timeline assuming you're on HDD. In which case I would recommend buying a referb full tower

    More ram than the base M3 MacBook Pro 🫠

    Personally, this would make a better Plex server than N95. Something to consider is the higher wattage of 35W compared to 5W of N95.

    This definitely wouldn't be better. The 6500T doesn't even support H/W transcoding. This is far from ideal for for media and the N95 is a much better option.

    • -1

      I don't need HW transcoding as I will be streaming only on local network., 4k plays just fine on these over network.

      I bought a Kumrai n95 last week, it died within 2 days.

      • +2

        I don't need HW transcoding as I will be streaming only on local network

        Client codec incompatibility also needs transcoding.

        • Agreed but both my TVs have been working fine on an i5 6th gen for months. Personal use case A+.

          • @abs898: I use a raspi as a plex server that doesnt transcode

            • @zorodluffy: I have got Samsung 8K tv and TCL 4K, I don't know much about transcoding but my old dell 6th gen has been working perfect so I guess the receiver has the capability to play whatever it's receiving.

              So I guess this will work fine too for my use case.

    • Paired with Nvidia Sheid, my home media server has been going strong for a week. Able to play Blueray quality 50-60gb movie files easily with no buffering.

  • Firebat T8 Pro. $174 delivered

    AliExpress, N100, AV1 decode
    Dual Gigabit Ethernet

    • Got Kumari AK1 plus n95 16gb on deal 2 weeks ago. Died in 2 days

      • Was it from AliExpress or Amazon or Ebay or somewhere else? What did their customer support say?

        • +1

          Amazon, they just offered to refund, I pushed hard for a replacement as I only paid 99.

          There was issue with the PCI, it was powering off every few minutes and won't power on until everything was disconnected.

    • Thanks just bought one :)

    6500T is 8 years old & not for win 11.
    I suggest to spend few more dollars to get M920Q/X, HP ProDesk 600 G4 Mini or Dell 3060 micro with Pentium CPU, i.e. 6400T/6500T. The price is on par with M910Q with i5 cpu. You can swap Pentium cpu (T @ 35w) with

    .i5/7 gen 8 or gen 9 cpu (T @ 35w), or

    .i5/7 gen 8 or gen 9 cpu (non-T @ 65w) either you do not use it for heavy-lifting work or turn off CPU " Turbo" in bios.

    Peasonally I am using M920Q with i5-9400 and feel comfortable with both speed and small form factor.

    • +1

      More than double the price.

      Win 10 good enough for most daily applications. Win 11 would run on this, but personally I will install AtlasOS (Win10)

      This unit is good for young kids (Minecraft) and older people (web browsing, video playback)

      You can even hook this up to your tv.

      Best parts is nvme not SSD and 12gb not 8gb

      • https://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p233249…

        Although they are all old gears, but M920Q/X, HP ProDesk 600 G4 Mini or Dell 3060 micro are more future-proofed.
        Performance wise, either M910Q or M920Q/X are all more than sufficient in use cases as you mentioned. But in case you have spare intel g8/9 cpu (1151pin), you can definitely boost the performace for more intensive use case, i.e.normal desktop pc, by swaping the CPU.
        I have both M700 (6400T) and M720Q (9400).
        I feel like M700 (6400T) is adequately used as a DSM-like file server, M720Q (9400) can be adequately used as ESXI host, i.e 4-6 VMs.
        When it is idle, M720Q (9400) draws about 14 W power.

  • Back in stock "almost gone"

    • +3

      Yep, seems back in stock. Says "More than 10 available" for me though.

  • Were these able to support pcie cards? (4 port NIC) Looking to convert to a PFsense/OPNsense box

    • M.2 to PCI-E adaptor needed

  • OOS again now.

  • Would these be able to support the bike companion program Zwift? Graphics wise.

    • +1

      Yes, but not the best graphics. Minimum for Zwift is HD 4000 graphics and 530 in this cpu is ~40% faster. But this is much slower than the recommended GTX 970

  • Great sold out. Saved some moiney …

    • But how much would fomo cost? :D

      • +1

        A lifetime of misery

  • OOS, shame think it would of made a great alternative to a rpi to run my home assistant

    • Keep an eye out. It was OOS last night and they released a few more units this morning

    • What about this slightly cheaper machine with the same CPU, memory and NVMe size?

      • Any performance differences between this and the OP one.

        • I would say negligible. Possibly just a slightly different motherboard

  • -1

    just in time for the new pack of UEFI vulnerabilities

  • Anyone had any luck flashing HAOS on this?

    • Getting the virtualisation error?
