Need help to find the right hardware

Hi,

currently i'm using an UpBoard (RPi like board with intel x5 z8350), wich doesn't run stable. One told me that CherryTail isn't well supported on linux.

That's why i need a new LE-Box.

My requirements are:
- It must be wakeable through WOL (by Yatse (Android Remote))
- It must be fast. My Movie-DB has about 8k entries. On most Android-Devices it takes ~30 sec to open it.
- It would be great to have 2 Video Outputs (1*HDMI and 1*HDMI or DP)
- H265 should be supported
- LE should run stable
- HDMI CEC would be nice, but is not required since i'm own a Pulse Eight Adapter.
- Price should be < 400€/$, lower is better

Any Idea?

Whether or not LE runs stable on it, no idea. I don't have the luxury of testing it.
But this could be my next Office/HTPC box with Intel 610 graphics, although 8GB is a bit overkill for LibreELEC.
Cheap housings are available at some €30, the rest is optional.

At that price range, I'd say an Intel NUC would be a good choice. There's also a CEC adapter for some of the models.
