appreciate another pair of eyes. all good, i know what "similar" deals to look for and grab it. appreciate it

i saw that too when i was making choices. reading the description i had thought may be the i7-8700 was the default and the other cpu options in list where the other choices. looks like i was in correct in that. oh well, i know what i'm lookin for now, so another deal will present itself there...

thanks!!!

ebay Dell opti i7-8700 i was lead to the above link via the ipcamtalk page, "Choosing Hardware for Blue Iris". that dell with an i7-8700, 32mb ram, 1tb ssd (os+BI+clips). the cpu covers quick sync video. i have a couple of WD purples still in their boxes sitting about. that should get me...

i see. i've had a dvr/nvr with the analog cams. it is ok but as far as flexability, forget it. updates, forget that too. it is stuck in ancient history. so l like the idea of a VMS <=1k. though i'll have to research the forums for some example builds and costs. and compare that to a good...

doesn't your NVR have much of the same functionality of a basic VMS, for home use? theNVR will have an interface (an app or web access) for retrieving-viewing your recorded & live surveillance footage, yes?

+++! i had not known this before. thankful for your post and others who have mentioned it.

another good perspective. leaning towards using both, get a NVR+PoE that allows an external PoE switch too. have some more comparing to do but after reading @ThomasCamFan's post i'm leaning that way. seems quite flexible but i'll see. thanks for your help.

thanks for the perspective, it helps!

is it recommended to use a DVR/NVR with PoE capability or get a seperate PoE/PoE+ switch ? total IP cams won't exceed 16. ~10 outside and ~4 inside.

an IP cam like this? http://www.nellyssecurity.com/cameras/eyesurv-esip-apex3-bt2-3mp-ip-ir-outdoor-bullet-security-camera.html

i have securitycameraking's "TRIDVR-ELE16M CM 16 Channel" tribrid using bnc analog cams and want to get 2 IP cams for my garage. i'm looking at either of these two for my garage...the bullet one in particular due to the reviewers with issues mounting the "dome" version. 1 Megapixel...

so that DigitalWatchdog DVR isn't so great huh? i think it cost ~800.00usd let me see if i understand this. with either the Q-see or Lorex i would connect those cams to my existing analog cables and use their HD DVR? i think the EYEsurv ESDV-TRIBRID-8 8Channel Analog-IP-HDCVI Tribrid DVR &...
