Why not a N100 though? Faster, lower TDP, and it's built in graphics supports hardware AV1 decoding (J5005 doesn't).

Cost. You can pick up a j5005 machine for $35 on eBay.

Yea, that's what I'm seeing. $200 for an N100 based machine , $80 for a j5005. CAD with shipping.

N100 is technically superior, but my use case is the *arr suite with plex, NAS attached so the j5005 will likely suit no problem.
