In Barebone / Mini Computers

we love this thing. Most of our work is just using a web browser and printing in the office. We replaced a power hungry tower with one of these running ubuntu and KDE plasma. No issues, runs like a champ. amazed at how fast and power this is for its size. We are ordering another one to replace another large tower.

The ASUS NUC 13 Pro was purchased as an HTPC for our outdoor theater that projects to a twelve foot diagonal screen. The compact size of this computer made this product an ideal choice. It is configured with a 1TB Western Digital SN770 M.2 2280 and 16GB (2x8gb) of GSkill Ripjaw DDR4 3200 ram. Installation of the M.2 and ram took less than five minutes. Windows 11 installed without any problems. I am especially impressed with the range of the included A211 Intel WI-FI and bluetooth capabilities of this unit. You will need to download and install the drivers that are readily available from the ASUS web site. After these drivers are installed, you will have complete connectivity to your home network. The graphics of this unit are off the charts outstanding with the included Intel Xe Video capabilities that produce razor sharp images; even when projected to a twelve foot screen. The ASUS Pro 13 far exceeded my expectations. For the sound system, I used a 10-year old Sound Blaster USB sound card that configured flawlessly. Also, with unit being configured with two Thunderbolt ports, I am able to connect any USB-C accessories as well as any future Thunderbolt upgrades.

After two years of continuous use in my homelab, the MINISFORUM NAB6 has completely exceeded my expectations. This little things was my first dedicated proxmox host. I've been consistently running seven virtual machines a mix of game servers and Docker hosts without a hiccup. The performance is there, I'm running a few dozen containers & everything runs without delay. Build quality is solid as well. Also, the amount of raw compute available in this compact package is more cost and power effective than a handful of Pi 5's. I upgraded the system to 64gb of ram and NAB6 still has plenty of headroom to run more applications.

Good service, quiet, powerful

Is powerful so quiet minimalist for those doesnt have much space! I really love how powerful is good for games incredibly with drawing softwares! Nothing bad to say is a little monter!

Nice storage flexibility - (1) 2.5" SSD and (1) M.2. Bootable from either. For an IP camera security system, I used a cheap 128GB 2.5" for boot + apps, 1TB M.2 for data. Slot for 2.5" SSD is very secure. ASRock internally cabling from mobo to 2.5" drive is easier to manage and mechanically more reliable than the approach used by ASUS on their ExpertCenter mini.

- High end processor for laptop standards - So small it's basically an enclosure for the processor - Upgradable to 64Gb and has two nvme slots - Decent internal GPU (Radeon 780M) and it can borrow system RAM up to 16GB - Good thermals (uses liquid metal on the CPU). The nvme drives have their own thermal pads and fan.

Feels very "snappy" in use Window 11 Pro Dual channel ram Nice clean installation No dorky RGB and a nice "case" for an office Nicely laid out with ports in the back to keep the desk clean
