I'm building up a new security camera system upgrading from my old Lorex consumer grade system. I have so far ordered three of the 4K T's with the built in LED's for each of my three entry doors on the house. I also purchased a 16 port Netgear PoE+ switch. I'm planning on a total of eight cameras but I haven't decided on the other five yet. So I'm not sure yet if all cameras will be 8MP......I doubt it. I want to run Blue Iris this time around instead of an NVR. My current Lorex NVR is a clunky experience if you do anything beyond just looking at the camera views. I have an older gaming PC that I could use for Blue Iris but I'm not really sure how well it will work with multiple 8MP cameras. The CPU is an Intel i5-4440 and has 16GB of RAM. It was a great gaming rig back in it's prime but it's definitely dated.
What are your thoughts on this PC? I have no issues with waiting to find a more robust PC to use but I thought since I had this one already.............................
