I’ve used these as desktops for my clients, set them up as small headless servers for various tasks, they are great! Fantastic performance, upgradable memory and storage and comes with a VESA mounting bracket. They also run near silent during normal operation. Includes a window license, absolute steal at this price point.
This product has boosted my work performance as I work from home. I have managed to connect a 50 inch 4k TV directly to the HDMI port and now my pc has become a complete package – work, entertainment and fun!
small but powerful is this NUC Pc, ideal to hook it up to a NAS box and use as a PLEX server or a home server connect to your TV.
Bought to replace an approx. 18 month dead Beelink Mini PC and looked to Intel, hoping for a high quality product. So far have been pleased with the purchase, the physical feel and look of the product seems solid and of good quality. I added 32GB memory and a 1TB Evo 970 M2. Installed Windows 11 Pro, am running Home Assistant and AdGuard Home in a VM. Has been very stable (is always on in a customised low power profile), performance in the VM and host has been great. The graphics when connected directly to my 4K display has been crystal clear and responsive. I haven’t tested with games play, but from first impressions and experience from other systems, I would expect it to handle light modern gameplay adequately. The overall package, I feel, is a great starting point to expand on. I couldn’t see a full NUC (I.e. not bare bone) with the CPU Generation, the size of memory and the size of drive I wanted at a price within the budget I set, but this bare bone came in at a good price that I was able to expand on. Transfer of OS was troublesome for me at first, so make sure you are covered either with a license for Windows or a plan for a Linux install or hypervisor, etc.
At this moment in time I recommend this product for those that are confident building from bare bones.
Bought for home office and design use. Very easy to setup. Everything most people would need in a computer, upgradeable RAM and SSD, USB 3.2 and USB-C Thunderbolt, Ethernet, HDMI, WiFi, Bluetooth and SD Card Slot. It’s very well built, great quality, nice solid feel. The fan is very quiet. The graphics capability maybe lacking for cutting edge gaming but is more than adequate for most applications. I would recommend a NUC to anyone looking for a powerful computer with a small footprint.
I bought this for my mother. She doesn’t play modern games but she does spend a lot of time using her computer. I thought this would be the perfect upgrade for her old aging computer.
The computer is tiny hardly taking up any room on her desk. Don’t let the size fool you. With plenty of ram and a fast drive, windows 11 boots in a few seconds. My mum pretty much only uses the computer for browsing the web, email and Zoom plus a few games. I have added a media player (Kodi) that streams videos from a NAS. It makes a great media machine which I have connected to both her monitor and tv so in effect I have replaced her old pc but also a small separate media player she had. I am very happy that a cheap pc does all she wants and more, play 4k movies, browse the web and be in a webcam meeting all running smoothly at the same time.
Another big plus is I received the Nuc in just over 4 hours of ordering it. What more can you ask for?
I recently purchased the Intel NUC 13 Pro Mini PC with the Intel i5-1340P processor, and I must say, it has exceeded all my expectations. As a tech enthusiast who loves tinkering with hardware and software, this barebone mini PC has become the heart of my home server setup, and I couldn’t be happier with its performance and features.
The processing power of the Intel i5-1340P with its 12 cores and 16 threads, clocked at up to 4.6GHz, is nothing short of impressive. Whether I’m running resource-intensive applications or multiple virtual machines, this little powerhouse handles everything with ease. The Iris Xe Graphics card adds a nice touch for occasional graphical tasks and light gaming, even though my primary use case is server-related.
Setting up the system as a server with Linux was a breeze, and from day one, it has been running flawlessly. The fact that it’s remained stable without any issues speaks volumes about the quality of the hardware. Moreover, the system’s responsiveness and speed are genuinely surprising, considering its compact form factor.
One standout feature of the Intel NUC 13 Pro is its whisper-quiet operation. Even during heavy workloads, the fan noise is barely noticeable, making it an excellent choice for a home environment. The small size of the unit is a real boon — I’ve tucked it away in a cupboard, keeping my setup clean and clutter-free. However, the device’s sleek design is so appealing that it’s almost a shame to hide it away.
In terms of connectivity, this mini PC offers a plethora of options. The Thunderbolt 4 port, WiFi 6E, USB 3.2 ports, and Bluetooth 5.3 ensure seamless connectivity with a wide range of devices. I’ve taken full advantage of these features to integrate the mini PC into my existing network setup without any compatibility issues.
Adding an M.2 NVMe and an SSD along with 32GB of RAM has transformed this mini PC into a true workhorse. It handles multitasking effortlessly, and the lightning-fast storage ensures quick data access and reduced loading times for applications.
I was also thoroughly impressed with the packaging and the lightning-fast shipping. The product arrived in pristine condition, securely packaged to ensure its safety during transit. The prompt delivery exceeded my expectations, allowing me to dive into setting up the system without any delay. I wholeheartedly recommend the Intel NUC 13 Pro to anyone in need of a high-performance mini PC solution.
In conclusion, the Intel NUC 13 Pro Mini PC has proven itself to be a fantastic investment for anyone seeking powerful performance in a compact and versatile package. Its robust capabilities, combined with the ease of setup and impressive connectivity options, make it a standout choice. Whether you’re using it as a server, a workstation, or a multimedia hub, this mini PC delivers exceptional results.
Its so small – but does come perfectly formed – its quick (i retained Windows 10 Pro for now, but its asking me to upgrade to 11)
Its HDMI connection was super simple – moved my existing connection over – same for keyboard and mouse
Its proved really simple to set up and use since purchase – and sufficient disk and RAM for my day to day.
This mini PC replaced a desktop PC and i was pleasantly surprised, lots of speed storage and memory this little black box packs a punch.
Lots of USB ports and no blasting fan noise
Would defiantly recommend
I’ve now been using this for over 2 months and I am impressed by the quality and performance of the PC. It has exceeded my expectations being small enough to be discrete but powerful enough to cope with day to day tasks. Even better it is silent. Arrived on time and packed well. I haven’t used it for games so cannot rate on that front. Would buy again and would recommend
