Which Intel NUC do you recommend for Non-gaming streaming PC (2022)?

Looking for one for watch & streaming but no gaming in it.

 

Thanks

Take your pick, anything that isn't an Atom or Celeron I'd expect to be fine for this as encoding/decoding should be handled by the iGPU.

Just double-check whichever CPU you are looking at on the Intel site to see what codecs and resolution it supports to be safe.

Router:  Intel N100 (pfSense) WiFi6: Zyxel NWA210AX (1.7Gbit peak at 160Mhz)
WiFi5: Ubiquiti NanoHD OpenWRT (~500Mbit at 80Mhz) Switches: Netgear MS510TXUP, MS510TXPP, GS110EMX
ISPs: Zen Full Fibre 900 (~930Mbit down, 115Mbit up) + Three 5G (~800Mbit down, 115Mbit up)
Upgrading Laptop/Desktop CNVIo WiFi 5 cards to PCIe WiFi6e/7

Yeah similar. Not the i7 models though look at the i3 models. 
 

Also have you thought about getting a steaming box like a fireTV or an appleTV?

I see, that is also one of  the solution
