  • Coming to the business end of the review, we tackle the pricing aspect first. The NUC8i7HVK is priced at $999. This is par for the course when it comes to SFF systems with discrete GPUs. We have evaluated multiple such systems in the last couple of years...

  • Solid CPU and GPU performance, Support for gameplay-enhancing features, like FreeSync, Myriad ports, including two Thunderbolt 3 x4, Can run external graphics over Thunderbolt 3, Runs quiet
  • Redesigned chassis makes access to internal components slightly more cumbersome
  • The NUC8i7HVK is capable of much more than I initially tested. Intel also touts this machine as an overclockable gaming and virtual reality machine. One idea that got bandied about was rolling your own VR backpack system: Pair it with a battery pack and y...

  • Impressive graphics performance, Compact, attractive design, Tons of ports, Customizable RGB lighting
  • Expensive after adding parts
  • The Hades Canyon NUC is an excellent showpiece for the potential of Kaby Lake G, offering mi-range gaming performance and respectable VR capabilities within an absolutely tiny chassis. The customizable RGB lighting is a nice added touch, and the system's...

  • Portable design, Fast storage, Customisable LEDs
  • No dedicated GPU
  • The Intel NUC is very much a case of you get what you pay for. As long as you understand what you're buying. This is a PC that prioritises portability over performance, so if you're happy with that focus and don't need a laptop, then definitely consider t...
