As title says what is the smallest PC I can use to view cameras remotely. Tired of a dual monitor set up on my office machine. want something solely for this don't need it for anything else. Was thinking of my old netbook but i want something sleeker. Maybe a mini PC
Running on Lan of course.

This maybe? Not sure how much power it needs for UI3

I've tried a few mini PCs like that one and found them to be quite slow and often unstable. Not like crashing every day, but every month or so.

I have one of these http://amzn.com/B015XT6H4A next to me. It is a previous generation atom, a little slower than what you linked. UI3 can't keep up with an 8MP @ 15 FPS stream but it does manage a 4 MP @ 15 FPS stream, barely. So if you like to stream a higher frame rate than that, you may need to use a 2MP stream.

I'd suggest getting something more powerful anyway. These are pretty small: Lenovo ThinkCentre M92p Micro Desktop i5-3470T 500GB HDD 8GB RAM 180427014542 | eBay (MORE: micro | eBay)
