Seem too big to be considered a NUC.

Sorry Intel, but this broke the camel's back. This thing looks ridiculous and more like a wet dream of proprietary parts that someone like Dell would love to sell.

It's a NUC in name only. It looks terrible, it's expensive and has no advantages at all over other pcs on the same price bracket/size.

$1550 just for a case, the CPU and a PSU ?? that's completely crazy and overpriced.

Just pick a nice ITX case and DIY the same build you will save a load of cash

Hello, you can add a 92mm fan on the CPU heatsink, it has screwholes and next to it there is a CPU fan header.
Do you still have the unit and can you test with a 92mm fan added ?

Name me a even small or smaller build ITX with 10Gbit network and TB4 capabilities ?
I'm looking for a smallest PC with GPU 3 slot card option, Thunderbolt4 and 10Gbit network connection.
Haven't found one yet. Only this NUC.

I'm really surprised to see the NUC being connected to the UPERFECT X Pro lapdock. If there are people who still think lapdocks are only for smartphones, show them the photo from this article.

Not sure if macOS is a wise choice.
