Review on Powerful and Compact: Intel NUC 10 Performance Kit with Intel Core i5 Processor (Tall Chassis) by Kyle Robbins

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Intel NUC Mixed Set

Semiconductor companies are not allowed to advertise or sell PCs. Rent your design to a real PC company. I had high hopes for the NUC, but the downsides are significant. The fan runs constantly, which is annoying. Erratic behavior when starting from hibernation, even though it could be Windows 10. There are many drivers on the Intel website but little explanation of what they do. The one-page "manual" is a joke. Two monitors don't always work. Sometimes one of the screens flickers. Whose problem is this? It's difficult to say. I understand that Apple's new silicon outperforms Intel in terms of performance. By the way, you need to buy a webcam, another expense that makes me wonder if a laptop would be a better choice. I love the SD card slot for photography and that's one of the reasons I bought the Model 10.

Pros
  • Computers and Accessories
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
