  • Quality machine with a wide selection of connections
Color: NUC12WSHi5 16GB+512GB
This device replaced my 5 year-old, larger desktop. My motivation was to have a quiet, small form factor and more powerful machine for home use. The initial Windows 11 boot up was smooth and I easily installed all the applications I used previously. This included a 2004 version of Quicken and 2010 MS desktop. To increase the overall memory capacity I added a separate 500GB SSD, see photo, to increase the overall memory to 1TB. In addition, I purchased a CD drive to assist in application installation and some Thunderbolt 4 to USB 3.2 adapters. You will also need to purchase a power cord to connect the transformer to you home outlet. This evidently frees Intel from having to have different version for international sales. All these items are available on Amazon My current setup Front USB 3.2 – unused USB 3.2 – unused Back: Thunderbolt 4 - SSD Thunderbolt 4 with USB adapter - camera HDMI – monitor HDMI – unused USB 3.2 – mouse USB 2.0 – keyboard RJ45 - Unused Wireless – printer What I really like is the large number of high performance connections. This provides a lot of flexibility for new devices. For example, I can easily connect my slide scanner or CD drive to the front when needed. I’m not a gamer, so I can comment on that performance aspect. The most processing intensive application I perform is 35mm slide scanning. This requires multiple scans per slide, specifically visible light, Infrared, for dust removal and a third scan to remove inherent scan jitter. The scan time is much less than my previous I5-8400 series processor. It’s also very quiet, even when the fan runs occasionally. Overall it looks sharp, performs well and is very well made. ... show more

  • Small and tidy computer with plenty of power
Do you dislike big box computers with their piles of cables? I certainly do! That is why I was attracted to this Intel Nuc. Take a look at the pictures attached to this review. Only two cables attached! An HDMI cable to the monitor and a power cable to the Nuc. Well yes, the monitor also has a power cable. So there is actually three cables. Still a very clean setup. I added a Dell Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse combo KM7321W which is working great with my Nuc. A bluetooth keyboard and mouse combo keeps the three USB A ports open and available and banishes unsightly keyboard and mouse cables. This Nuc also has two super fast Thunderbolt 3 / USB C ports. One on the front one on the back. The back also contains an HDMI port and an ethernet port. The Nuc is protected by a three year warranty. The i7 Nucs have plenty of power to browse the web, edit photos with Affinity Photo, design posters with Affinity Designer and work with Microsoft Office. I have my Nuc connected to a Dell 4k 32 inch curved monitor. It is a great platform for watching 4k youtube videos. My brother connected an external gpu (Graphic Processing Unit) to his i7 Intel Nuc. He has been playing graphically intense games without an issue. Thanks to Amazon Prime you won't have to wait long to receive an Intel Nuc if you so choose. ... show more

  • Insufficient heat dissipation for 14th gen Core i7+32GB RAM + Intel ARC. BIOS errors at startup
Color: AI NUC14RVHU7 32GB+1TB
I setup this NUC 14 pro with a single 24 inch ASUS PC Monitor(10yr old PA24Q proart monitor). The fan runs on high making some noise, when more than 60 chrome browser tabs are open(as a test). The PC blows warm air over the ports and connecting wires, which causes worry about long term reliability. After purchase, i read some online tech website review which mentions that unlike NUC 14 Pro+, NUC 14 pro has a throttled TDP or power compared to 65w Rating of i7-155H in NUC 14 pro +(which has aluminum chassis and better heat dissipation setup). This particular NUC 14pro variant is extra tall (for additional SSD), but the increased space does not translate into better heat dissipation. "Air intake/ventilation grill is open only on one side, which I think due to some pc parts blocking the other side(which closed dummy grill in the chassis. I want to keep it, but have almost made up my mind now to return it. The main reason for return is not the inefficient thermal setup or the alleged throttled lower power processor, but the BIOS error warnings and having to opt to start with previous settings warnings everything. The startup has been slow/problematic(even before the BIOS errors started after startup). The power button needs to be held for a few seconds for the PC to start , as it will not start with a single press of the power button!!?? Not sure if this is an isolated issue, or a common issue on all NUC 14 pros. For a total cost of ~USD$1200, which is close to what a 2024 Dell XPS 13 would cost during regular sales, I expected more from NUC 14 pro(for the money), in terms of stability, heat management, considering that it does not come with a screen, speakers, touchpad/keyboard, or battery to save work in case of power failure. Those are additional expenses. These 3rd party assembled NUC 14pro seem to be over priced, especially considering the inefficient hear dissipation. I am wondering how much heat/fan noise will be generated(along with potentially lower long term reliability) if I connect 4 screens to the available ports on the back of this NUC 14pro. There is no ASUS branding on the NUC 14 pro. ASUS by itself seems to selling only NUC 14 pro +, but I would worry about lobg term reliability of those as well. I hope to update this review with more photos/information. ... show more
