Intel NUC 12 Pro Wall Street Canyon NUC12WSHi7 Mini PC, LATEST 12TH Gen Intel Core i7-1260P 12-Cores, 16 threads, 18MB Cache, Upto 4.7GHz Turbo,Intel Iris Xe Graphics, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD, Win 11 Pro

This intel NUC core i7 11th gen is so far the best minipc that I ever have. I bought this computer to do office work on a 8K monitor. Works perfectly. I havent experienced much fan noise. Is smaller than my previos minipc a zotac core i5 8th gen but 4 times more powerfull.

I like the fact it was a very small form factor. I had down sized my home and I didnt need a tower or a regular desktop. No space! Fit right next to and under monitor! Save desk space, that was down sized as well. Performance was excellent!

Having never interacted with an Intel NUC before, I was honestly surprised at how small it was. I was honestly expecting it to be about half again as big as it is. But it runs 24/7 without issue, is dead silent, and barely takes up any space. It came with the power brick and AC cord, which is something that you have to watch out for, as well as all of the normal mounting hardware. Not every seller will ship that with their barebones units. Installing the RAM and m.2 SSD was quick and simple, as was updating the UEFI.

I have ordered many of the various generations of NUCs for use as POS terminals, light duty computers (it attaches to monitors nicely with the included VESA bracket), and workstations. This particular model (i7, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD) was purchased to house a company file for Quickbooks. Takes up little space and works very well for a single use mini server with power to spare. The 12th Gen NUCs finally have two HDMI ports which makes it nice for dual screen setups without needing USB-C adapters. Have been very happy with the stability of the 12th units as well (have approx. 6 in service).

I would pretty much concur with all of the glowing reviews here. BUT the on-board NIC just up and died after just a week. By now Ive spent enough time with this thing that getting a thunderbolt 2.5gb NIC seems preferable to horsing around with any sort of exchange/return.

Quite an awesome piece of technology! Because its small and consumes little energy.

High quality product received as expected. This was a NUC11PAHi7 barebones kit. I got my own RAM and SSD, everything went together fine and the NUC even took Linux without a headache. Just make sure that you update your BIOS from intel support page before trying to install ANYTHING, even Windows. I had the memory, storage, and OS installed in less than 45 minutes.

Excellent computers. I bought TEN of these (from Seller Nenchin). I went for the 512GB SSD / 16GB RAM option, With a 4 core i7 CPU running at 2.8GHz and 16GB of memory, I can have loads of windows open and performance is still excellent. The 512GB SSD makes bootup very quick. We use them even for applications as demanding as Adobe Photoshop and Adobe AfterEffects (video editing), It really has everything needed in a desktop computer.
