    Customers are satisfied with the fit of the computer. They mention that it is a decent very small form factor computer, that fits the bill perfectly, and that it has a small footprint. Some say that it sits on a shelf and that they can remote desktop into it. Overall, most are happy with the quality and size of the product.

    "...8gb ram and a 160gb SSD (older intel ~250MB/s) The CPU power is good for web browsing, what what not...." Read more

    138 customers mention78 positive60 negative

    Customers are mixed about the performance of the computer. Some mention that it meets their modest expectations, does the job well, and runs smoothly. However, others say that it is not super fast, takes forever to load the video driver, and has limited processing power. It took some time to get onedrive downloaded and the Macafee security software took several hours.

    "...It's also powerful enough to make a nice little standalone server. Drop in a 4 or 8 GB ram stick and a 2.5" ssd. This gizmo is quite responsive...." Read more

    "...Firefox runs like hot garbage at this point - it may be an artifact of the GPU support issues in the 3.x kernel, but I'm not sure and don't really..." Read more

    "...As for my this NUC, I modded it to be quite. Its working beautifully now hooked to my TV for whatever moments I need a PC up there, not much anymore..." Read more

    "...This device is first-rate -- it was easy to set up and is easy to use...." Read more

    40 customers mention13 positive27 negative

    Customers are mixed about the video quality of the computer. Some mention that it runs fine on YouTube 4K videos at 1080p, while others say that it struggles to play 1080 videos and is severely underpowered at 1020p. It's 4K capable, but it's not good at streaming 4K movies.

    "...At this time Steam streaming is definitely affected by the GPU issues - the stream will work, but video decoding is hosed...." Read more

    "...projector (BENQ W1070) will display 3d and this unit has no problem outputting a 3d image...." Read more

    "...UPDATEThe BIOS on this PC seem to be very poorly done. I had it set it up for UEFI booting, so I switched off the Legacy boot option...." Read more

    "...1. all device manager drivers seems installed ok.2. hdmi 1920 resolution is bad - driver seems to simply not work (10.18.14.4234), the display..." Read more

    35 customers mention20 positive15 negative

    Customers are mixed about the ease of setup. Some mention it's super easy to set up, install the SSD and memory, and use the computer. The document is easy as pie to follow, and the firmware configuration interface is very well designed. However, others say that it'd be very hard to install the OS on the system, have some issue while installing the application, and not be able to install any OS on this device.

    "...with this, and if you don't mind a little tinkering, it's trivial to get Ubuntu (or OpenELEC or you distro of choice I'd assume) up and running." Read more

    "...I subtracted 1 star because I was not able to install windows 7 at least out of the box...." Read more

    "...I downloaded the firmware from Intel, and installing it was easy (once I finally got into the BIOS, see below)...." Read more

    "...me, this is just icing on the cake, but the firmware configuration interface is very well designed and easy to use.* Good Linux support...." Read more

    15 customers mention10 positive5 negative

    Customers are mixed about the noise of the computer. Some mention it's very quiet, while others say that the fan cycles on too much and proves annoyingly loud. Some say that it'll sound teeny but is always on and whiny.

    "...All in all this little guy is fantastic. It's almost completely silent, and looks attractive - or can easily be hidden pretty much anywhere you want..." Read more

    "...Quiet...." Read more

    "...Edit: Ended up getting a MacMini (2012, i7 Quad) for my home server. Very quiet, very fast (Ivy Bridge i7), very power efficient...." Read more

    "...My biggest gripe is its fan, which sounds teeny but is always on and whiny...." Read more

    Excellent Mini Server!
    4 Stars
    Excellent Mini Server!
    Excellent Linux Box. Had a minor issue setting up Ubuntu 16.04. I used a USB 2.0 flash drive to boot/insall Ubuntu without issue. However, after the installation Ubuntu would not load after POST and I only got a blank/black screen. I went into the BIOS and found UEFI enabled for a Linux boot. I disabled this feature and rebooted the computer and Ubuntu started up just fine. I have been working in I.T. most of my teen/adult life so I was able to quickly resolve that minor issue. I would rate this box a 5 for the built in Wifi, Gig Ethernet, 2.5 HD enclosure (given the small size of the case), and the low power consumption, however I am taking a 1 star away for the average consumer because of that booting to black screen/UEFI situation. Although most people trying to install Linux distros aren't average consumers, it could possibly be an issue for anyone that doesn't know the possible problems involved with UEFI and Secure Boot configurations. Other than that, Ubuntu 16.04 works very well and all components work without issue including sleep/suspend functions. My configuration includes a 1TB 2.5" HD and 4GB DDRL RAM.I bought one of the original Intel NUC's about 3 years ago and it is still my main HTPC connected to my TV. This box is serving as my server for my content (replacing an old laptop.) I hope it can last me as long as my original!
