botrytis Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 It is sad, because some of the Intel NUC's, while expensive were some of the most quiet and speedy ones on the market. Any time a market loses a competitor, the less the market has to innovate. Like this one...

botrytis Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Their lowest power CPU's, the last Celerons, were just fantastic for doing exactly that with not much cooling.

botrytis Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 I have one Celeron NUC and one Ryzen R9 4900H - both are plenty for what I use. The Celeron one is a Gigabyte. I am still using an Intel 60 GB SSD, for when I play with Daphile - just for the software - music somewhere else.
