Intel NUC 12 NUC12WSHi7 Wall Street Canyon Mini Computer 12th Gen Intel Core i7-1260P, 12 Cores(4P+8E), 16 Threads, 18MB Intel Smart Cache, Intel Iris Xe Graphics,32GB RAM, 1TB PCIe SSD, Win 11 Pro

I keep computers for a long time, but I recently saw a friends Mac Mini and I got jealous - even though I never buy Apple products. I am so glad I discovered this tiny powerhouse. After booting Windows and convincing myself that I wanted to keep the computer, I installed Fedora and set it up the way I like. With 12 cores and 32G of RAM, it makes an awesome QEMU/KVM host. The machine is sleek, quiet, fast, and rock-solid. The BIOS interface gives you fine-grained control, unlike (for example) Dell machines. Im a coder and this machine is perfect for me.

I got the unit as a bare-bones systems. I installed 64GB RAM and a 2 TB SATA drive. Ethernet was upgraded to 10GbE with the help of a thunderbolt 3 QNAP adapter. Performance is great with Windows 10, 11 and Ubuntu (22.10). The internal 2.5G Ethernet (intel i225-v) works just fine.

I researched towers for one month solid before choosing this little guy! The NUC12 Wall Street Canyon 12th GEN i7-1260 is exactly what Ive always wanted in a computer! Small but gosh darn powerful and fast! It starts right up, no waiting about 5 minutes like I had to on my old computer. Its small enough to not get in the way or take up too much space. And quiet-you can barely hear the fan run when it does. Windows 11 PRO to me is better than WIN 10 because I m setting this one up myself and I couldnt figure out how to do it on any of my others. And I got a darn good price at $918-Im happy with it. Couldnt be happier with where I bought it either-the GEEKPlus Store-the Computer Mall and Cathy who assured me that with its 3 year warranty I wouldnt need to bother with an added protection plan. Everythings working really well and I seem to find something new about it every day. If your wondering if its a good deal, I say YES! It most certainly is !Worth every penny I spent and then some! GET ONE! Fire

The intel NUC pro kit and mini pc works right out of the box. I made the buy due to my Dell of 12 years not being unable to upgrade to windows 11. Glad I did !! I didn’t know what I was missing. The Bluetooth and wireless perform awe. The connections are plenty for such a compact pc. The mini is even perfect for the NOVICE*****. Lastly the machine is FAST yes!!! I have not experienced anything negative after almost 3 weeks of operation. Thank you for being able to enjoy the PC.

Love the kit, just turn it on and it is ready to go. Quick and quiet. Installed easily behind my monitor.

Installed Crucial RAM 32GB DDR4 3200MHz x2, SAMSUNG 980 PRO SSD 2TB PCIe NVMe Gen 4, SAMSUNG 870 EVO 4TB 2.5 Inch SATA III Internal SSD and Transcend 512GB SATA TS512GMTS430S.

This replaced a Dell i7 tower computer and runs rings around it! Dont let the small size fool you, this is a powerful computer in a small package. Added a thunderbolt to HDMI adapter in order to hook up my 3rd monitor and ran flawlessly. Cant recommend this enough!

My little NUC arrived as I took it out of the box, I noticed a rattle inside unit. OH NO!!! I am not saying unit would not work with the lose something inside, but why take that chance.

My old win 10 machine died and I wanted win 11 pro so I got the NUC-12. What a surprise, the fastest machine I have ever owned. I upgraded to 64 gb of ram and typically run 1-2% cpu 10% ram and my disk chanels are swamped.The result of having 6gb hard disks on a 40 gb thunderbolt 4 port. Will be fixed soon and machine should perform as designed. A lesson for those who plan to attach old stuff to a new lightning fast workhorse in an amazingly small package.

These works great on windows. I am using these for Proxmox cluster. So far working fine, though I couldnt figure how to pass GPU and Wifi yet but thats not my immediate requirement.
