I currently make tens of high-end PCs for audiophiles each year, and I have been making my own HTPCs for well over a decade now. I am familiar with most components, sticking with Intel+Nvidia for a long time for personal use. I am familiar with the Nvidia control panel, although not an advanced expert in some of the settings. For my customers and the interest of keeping things consistent, I use Streacom cases; the need for an external PSU brick all but precludes the use of a video card. Therefore I was looking for a 4K HDR solution that is CPU/APU only. Hence my initial question about the Ryzen 5 2400G, and eventual testing. I think a product based around it is possible, but I have to do more testing on upscaling 1080p or smaller video to optimise it.

audiophiles? ... lol ... picky lot

if using brick power ... thats gonna limit choice of GPU for sure ... but can use faneless PSU, like Silverstone NightJar SST-NJ520 or Seasonic SSR-600TL ... that should give plenty power for GPU

HDPLEX H5 case have enough room for those PSU ... so theoretically can put in i7 with 1060

can buy ready made but expensive

i personally would buy from HDPLEX directly and assemble myself ... probably i5 and reduce power to 1080

unfortunately ... spent all my budget this year on Supermicro NAS ... wife wont give more lol

We will never use an internal PSU, for the audio systems at least.
As you say, audiophiles are picky, and they do not want the ripple noise and EMI within the chassis.
I know all about HD-Plex - they are one of our suppliers, but not for cases.

Anyway, the Ryzen is working well so far. Still need to test with the 1080p and lower upscaling.
