    Computer recommendation for 7 HD cameras with BlueIris

    Agreed, while I did like the size specs of my i3 NUC, I am now excited to get a more cost effective i7 (no next business day delivery for me though ;)) Do you guys know how it works with the Win 10 licenses when purchasing on ebay? If I need to reinstall the OS on a SSD - do I usually get CD...

    That's a good point! So I should either get the HP you recommended in your first reply or wait for something like this to come down in price a bit?

    Thank you fenderman! :) Would it be bad if left inside? I can't seem to find any Elitedesk i7-6700 tower even near that range :D

    Thank you very much! I'll look into this computer. What do you think of this one? Dell OptiPlex 7040 MT i7-6700 (6th Generation) 8GB 500GB (no SSD though, so will add SSD) AMD R7 350 4GB (not really needed for this setup I guess...) ~$550 Whenever I enable hardware acceleration all cameras stay...

    Computer recommendation for 7 HD cameras with BlueIris

    Hi all, I have been a spectator to this forum quiet some time and enjoyed a lot of good topics, tips and hints so far. Thanks a lot for that! While I have been using my current computer/camera setup a lot, I recently added more HD cameras (Hikvision DS-2CD2042WD-I), totaling 7 cameras, and now...
