Review on I5 8279U Processor Computer πŸ’» with Windows OS – Up to 4.1GHz by Jason Hinrichs

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Ideal for desktop and website visits.

I upgraded my RAM from 8GB to 16GB by adding another RAM stick. I also replaced the 256 NVME with a Samsung 970 500GB NVME. I use NucBox 2 as my main desktop computer. It is also used as a Plex server with an 8GB external hard drive. A 1 TB SSD was used as a backup and storage medium. It gets a little warm so I use it when I'm standing on my side for better airflow. I use about 2.5 watts in idle mode. Great little computer. I haven't tried playing with it.

Pros
  • build quality
Cons
  • the list will be long.
