Ultra-small form factor. HDMI video output. Easy to assemble.
No USB 3.0 support. Price does not include storage or RAM. Lacks Ethernet port
The Intel Next Unit of Computing (NUC) is a neat little DIY kit that delivers Core i3 processing power in a form factor that fits in the palm of your hand. But it gets pricey once you add in all the necessary extras....
Intel's Next Unit of Computing is an interesting and creative way of pushing the small form factor PC design industry forward while still giving a nod to users like us that want to build and customize computers in anyway we can. Want to build a NUC with...
Ultra compact, Strong overall performance (blows most mini PCs out of the water), Easy to service and upgrade parts, Comes with VESA mounting hardware
Stability issues related to Wi-Fi card, Weak gaming performance, Limited expandability, No USB 3.0 ports
So, is this the future of computing? Intel certainly things so, and we have to admit, the NUC makes a strong case for diminutive desktops that are small enough to hold in your hand. Heck, the NUC almost fits in your pocket. The reason a system like this...

Good performance, Tiny form factor, Connectivity, QuickSync
Not much gaming grunt, No internal SATA port, A bit pricey when additional extras factored in
The NUC gives us the hots as a general purpose system. With the Intel 520 SSD, it's slick and super responsive to use. And while the Intel HD 4000 graphics fail the fragging test, you do get QuickSync. Within certain limitations, then, you could even use...

Abstract: Intel's Next Unit of Computing (NUC) is a tiny 4x4 inches square PC that the chip giant believes is ideal for “digital signage, kiosks, home theatre systems and intelligent devices for small spaces.”The DC3217BY, a model name nobody can memorise, is aimed...
Tiny size, Good performance, Great as a media centre-style device
Consumer model lacks LAN
Intel's Next Unit of Computing is a wonderful device for anyone who wants a genuinely tiny computer system for the home, office, or anywhere else. It supplies speed that's on par with a regular-sized computer and it has a useful range of connectivity, inc...
I'm a huge fan of first impressions, and the NUC blew me away. That simple Intel sound when opening up the NUC really did go a long way - and keeps the memory fresh in my head. The size of the NUC is utterly impressive, considering it sports a Core i3...
