In my media renderer I have: 2C/4T i3-6100 3MB 3.7 GHz, 51W, 8 GB DDR2133 RAM
It has a CPU Passmark of 5483, Single Threat is:2106 and JRmark is 4104.
The CPU plays all my music files with an always average load of 3-10%. I don't do real time conversion of pcm to DSD. DSD to pcm works fine with that CPU, I always convert my DSD to pcm in real time on this computer to my rme HDSPe AIO 24bit/192kHz card for audio output through AES interface.
In my HO I have AMD 5700G 8C16T APU and ADI-2 DAC FS which plays also DSD native.
Compared to i3 the AMD APU has a CPU Passmark of 24086, Single Threat is:3314 and JRmark is 7130. iGPU of the AMD CPU is much better, but you need that only for video. In UW resolution it plays also 4K video files using JRVR as video renderer.
