I want to setup my first jellyfin server on a dedicated media server
and not on my host PC anymore. I found a good deal but i don't know if
the computer has the right hardware requirements. Does anybody have
experience with this.

HP Elitedesk 800 G1 Mini desktop PC

CPU: Intel core i5 2-3Ghz

Memory: 8GB

Graphics card: Intel HD Graphics 4600

Will it work? Yes, it will run Jellyfin.

To better answer your question, more information is needed.  Will you
be transcoding, and how many users will be using it, and where will
the users be.

If you are planning on only having 4k movies, and constantly streaming
to 4+ people on cell phones, it will probably not be able to keep up.
If you only are using it for 1 - 2 people just to stream to
TV/Computer, it should be fine.

Yeah just for 1-2 users. And not even 4k so i will look into it

If you are not transcoding 4k, then it's most likely to work well.
