running on single board computer

[WeirdlyChosen]

Hello, my old PC is broken on motherboard and it means I have to upgrade my system. However, I'm tight on budget and prefer low power computing.

It was an intel atom, 2gb RAM with windows 7 64bit, and SV 4 run without problems at all. But I used to run openHAB on that PC and it became very slow because SV used 1gb RAM and my openHAB suite use 800-900MB RAM, so I moved openHAB to a raspberry pi and everything is back to normal.

While I'm aware that SV recommends intel NUC for standard computer, is it possible to run on single board computer for 2 cameras with 720p resolution? It is very less likely for me to upgrade to more cameras, or better resolution cameras in a distant future.

I'm currently interested on intel computestick or lattepanda board that able to run a full windows 10 OS with very low power consumption.

Unfortunately, computational requirements of SV are much higher than a single board computer will offer. While we encourage all and any experiments, this is not something we would recommend for operational deployment.

With only two cameras max, you might get away with running this on the Core m3 model of the Computestick but at this point you are spending $400 bucks. Is it worth saving a little cheddar, when you can get a Core i3 NUC at least for those two? I've got a guy running 3 cameras off a potato at his burger shack and it's "just okay" but not really as speedy as I would like.
