Actually most 'pro' IT types will have every component ever made, except for the ones you actually need to build this :wink:
If it needed DDR or a socket 462 sempron I'd be in luck!

These appear good value, but the processor is quite weak and by the time you have added RAM, HDD and Windows(if your building a WinBox) it might be more cost effective to got for an all in one solution like the VOYO V3 for 135 notes:-
X7-Z8700 (x2 as quick as the N2807)
4Gb RAM
128Gb HDD + upto 128Gb TF slot
USB TypeC x1
USB3 x2
USB2 x1
HDMI (with 2160p output)
-Supports H.265, MPEG4/XVID, WMV/VC-1, MPEG2 MP, AVS, H.263 up to 50 Mbps; VP8 up to 30 Mbps , 4k: 3840 x 2160
2.4GHz and 5GHz Wifi Connectivity
Gigabit Ethernet
Bluetooth 4.0
3.5mm Audio Jack
Windows 10
Size 130mm x 130mm x 10mm
But at the end of the day it all depends what you want it for. Their are cheaper media boxes if that's your aim.

I had the earlier voyo but the emmc died in it. Replaced it with a J1900 Brix or I'd have snapped this one up.

Do you know what the difference is, between the V2 and the V3?

You can easily pick up a 4GB RAM for 12-13£ and a 128GB SSD for say 27£ which makes the build cost 120£ and the ssd will be faster than emmc in voyo and I would say in most uses this would count for more than the improvement in processing speed. Voyo does look slicker though...

Was going to post this earlier but too busy rushing out to buy. Great little boxes (This is my third). Add an SSD and some memory and you have a perfectly silent fanless basic PC. Heat added.
