Can a N100 mini PC with 8/16 RAM run Traktor Pro? Can anyone with a mini PC tell me which one they recommend for Traktor?

    I would recommend a Mac mini M1 or newer with at least 16 GB RAM. Not sure with N100 though. NI lists Intel Core i5 or equivalent as requirement. But as this requirement would contain even first generation Core i5 from 2009/2010 and N100 is in the Alder Lake generation (released Q1/23) I would expect Traktor Pro to run on these chips. But have no evidence, as I don't have a machine with N100 to try.

    The N100 model number comes from a multitude of different brands with different specs. Do you have a link to which mini pc you are referring to?

    That's a chromebook kind of CPU, Might struggle to run Traktor properly. i5 is minimum by recommended specs.

    And how do you like this one? I found this on AliExpress: €564.62 | New Mini PC Windows 11 Intel i9-8950HK/N5095A 16GB DDR4 1TB 2TB SSD Desktop Gamer Computer Dual WIFI 6 BT5.2 4K HD Gaming Pc
    https://a.aliexpress.com/_EI7V2CA I'll tell you about my idea to have a mini PC under the S8 without a screen, making it completely independent. When I turn on the mini PC, Traktor should open directly, making the S8 completely independent.

    Yes, but I want to spend a little less on my budget, and looking at the N100s, they're equivalent to an i5, and adding 16 GB of RAM is the question I have about whether it will run smoothly on Traktor Pro. That's why my question is in case someone who has a mini PC with an N100 can test if it runs well with Traktor Pro.Since looking at AliExpress you can get them for around 120/€130 more or less

    You can find mac mini M1 for 400€ at second hand market so if you bargain a bit with intel based model's owners maybe you can find a good deal with more value and trustable OS than any of these NUCs.

    But that's just my opinion… I would save and will go for M1 and even I wonder time to time about buying an M4 just for embedding into hardware purposes. These are so small, so powerful and enough cheap to justify that modding diy route instead wait for brands to release mk2 versions of their standalone hardware maschines…
