Setting up an ETH node at home. Easy as shit tbh. Lemme summarise..

Hardware:
ASUS Mini PC PN51 with Ryzen 5700
2TB NVMe M.2 drive (Samsung 970 Pro Plus)
32gb stick RAM

Download Ubuntu and create bootable disk ..
itsfoss.com/create-live-usb-of-ubuntu-in-windows/

Plug in the Ubuntu USB stick, mouse/kb and screen and power up..

Ubuntu is automatically selected as a choice to install onto the PC.

Start up Ubuntu Open terminal and now follow Rocketpool fantastic guides to setup the node with everything you need..

      nice is this significantly cheaper than just going with a plug and play solution like avado or dappnode (i know its still not optimized for rocketpool but lets say it was)

        I'm now using this node with Frame/Rabby/Metamask to send my own transactions btw.
        All you need to do is check 'Expose RPC Ports' option in the Rocketpool config and then add your device's local_IP_address:EC_http_port
