The Intel NUC range of small-form-factor personal computers reimagines the traditional desktop computer as a mini powerhouse suited to a range of applications. NUC is an acronym of Next Unit of Computing, and Intel have created a number of barebone kits that can be tailored to your own specifications. This gives you the opportunity to build a mini PC that’s perfectly suited to a specific task—whether gaming, multimedia, productivity, or any other application. How much is Intel NUC UK price in 2020?
NUC PCs also have a great reputation for running efficiently, meaning they generally generate less heat and subsequently less fan related noise. They are customizable with your choice of memory, storage and wireless connectivity. In addition to this, NUC mini PCs also benefit from being open to your choice of operating system, allowing you to base your system on Linux, Windows and in some cases Apple OS.

- 3-year Intel warranty for complete product
Intel NUC Kits
- Ready to build
- Configurable features
- Install your own memory, storage, and operating system (not included)
- Full range of Intel® processors
Intel NUC Boards
- Ready to integrate
- Soldered-on processor
- 4×4-inch form factor

What is good in NUC barebones?
At their core, NUC computers consist of a motherboard with an integrated CPU and GPU; the NUC case and fan in a variety of sizes; external power supply; VESA mounting brackets; and external connectivity options including display ports, USB ports, Ethernet, audio, and power connections. Each generation, and subsequently each kit within that generation, features different configurations of these specifications. This means you should carefully check the specs of each model before committing to a purchase.
This kind of barebones system means you can decide on the RAM, storage options and connectivity options you wish to include. All NUC cases include room for SODIMM memory modules, mSATA for storage, a PCI-e slot for components such as a wireless antenna plus either usb 2.0 or 3.0 ports. Additionally, the larger NUC computers provide the connections and space to install a 2.5 inch SATA drive in your choice of either HDD or SSD.
In addition to the larger and more powerful NUC mini PCs, Intel also offers a range of Compute Sticks. Put simply, the Compute Stick squeezes a diminutive desktop PC into a large USB dongle, providing HDMI connectivity by plugging in the stick to your monitor or television. Ideal for web surfing, streaming or productivity applications, the Intel Compute Stick places extremely powerful and efficient PC components into your pocket—bringing you a computing experience that is truly mobile and remarkably versatile.
