Intel NUC 7 Home A Mini PC with Windows 10 Intel Core i3 1TB HDD 16GB Optane Memory 4GB DDR4 Gunmetal (BOXNUC7i3BNHXF)

Small, light, quick, easy to set up and use. Only problem is that it's connected to my Dell monitor, and sometimes when I come in to use it, the monitor has gone into power save mode and I can't wake it up except by hard resetting the NUC to force a shut down and restart. That's super annoying. I know the NUK is on because I can hear it, but the monitor says it's not receiving a signal. This is has happened between 1-2 times per week for the month I've had it, and there seem to be other people on the web with this problem and no one has a solution. Weird, and annoying.

So far have been very UN-impressed with the performance, it simply cannot play ripped UHD files bigger than 30 GB without severe stuttering or just not playing at all. I have tried 3 different software players and same story so I wouldn't recommend this particular model for 4K playback of ripped files. Maybe the better processor/ram models would suffice?

I bought this and to my discredit I let it sit for a long time before setting it up. Otherwise I'd be returning it. It's junk that didn't work out of the box....end of story.

Trying to use a program I used on other computer. The Nuc won't work with the drivers. I called and worked with the software developers, downloaded drivers. yada yada yada... doesn't work. i3 is much slower than expected.

I received the bare-bones NUC, and it did not include the memory nor the hard drive as advertised.
