      Hp t620. Best price with a power supply right now is around $30, but recent solds are in the low $20. You can also get an hp g5 sff desktop with a ryzen cpu for around $65.

      I have a few t620s, one with octoprint, and one in the garage for looking up whatever. I think I have lubuntu on it, but I can’t remember. There’s different variants, there’s a dual core and a quad core and a bigger one with a pcie slot. They originally shipped with some lightweight version of win 10.
