If you can get a 7th gen Intel or even a halfway decent basic El cheapo Nvidia card then that will help with transcoding but outside of that anything that runs the interface should be fine.
This. Not to mention, there are a million Nvidia P4s on Ebay for cheap after everyone dismantled their old mining rigs. Also, they're low-pro cards not any longer than an ITX motherboard.
You don't even need 7th gen. My i7 920 could run it without breaking a sweat.
The reason why I said 7th gen is because the built-in graphics card can do some pretty good quality transcoding.
It's also nice because on the used market there's quite a few i3 and i5 based 7th gen PCs available for a hundred and change.
