small full 4k 120hz HDR moonlight/artemis streaming machine?

[kswissgithub]

Hi all, sorry if this is the wrong category or if this has been asked before.

I'm looking for a new moonlight/artemis device to steam games to my living room tv.
I currently use an old gaming rig as a moonlight client, but it's a somewhat dated and loud full size ATX tower that can't output full 4k 120hz.

My main priority is something that can output full 4k 120hz 10/12 bit HDR 4:4:4.
Second priority is I want it to be fairly small.
Last thing is it doesn't necessarily need to be cheap, but I would like to know some of the cheapest options possible.
Bonus points if it relatively quiet.

This device would pretty much be used only as a client for streaming games, so actual gaming/editing performance + storage space isn't necessary.

So far from what I've gathered my best bet might be a minisforum machine. However I'm having trouble finding which model fits my criteria.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

If you want 4:4:4, then AMD ones are out of the question.

You can consider some NUCs or mini PCs with newer Intel chips, preferably 12th Gen i5 or up. N100/N150 are okay-ish with 4K60 but will struggle with 120.

Make sure the device you're looking for supports HDMI2.1 and that's very important.

Yeah, something along the lines of 1345U Minipc should do. N100 will be not able to output this.

Oh dang, I didn't know AMD had that limitation. I was considering the UM750L, but I guess that's out of the question now.

Are there any mini PCs in the sub $400 range that would work with what I want?

Right now the best bang for my buck I can find is to get an ASUS NUC 15 Pro Slim and throw in some ram and a nvme (around $500 total).

I can't help but feel this is kind of overkill and a lil expensive for a dedicated game streaming client.
Are all AMD mini PCs really not capable of 4k 120hz 4:4:4?

[ClassicOldSong]

AFAIK they don't... AMD being AMD as always

What's hilarious is, only higher end chips get better decoding capabilities, no matter x86 or ARM...

You'll end up with a device that other people may play their entire collection on directly for streaming purposes...

Did you get this one and are you happy with it? I'm in the same boat.
