The Intel 'Hades Canyon' NUC has been unveiled by the brand as a system for avid gamers to utilize rather than having to opt for towers that are oversized, loud and not portable. The new unit comes in two model choices including the NUCi7HVK and the NUC8i7HNK, which are priced at $999 and $799, respectively.
Set to release in spring 2018, the systems pack a discrete GPU that enables it to perform well with resource-intensive processes like VR games and much more. Room for two SSDs and two sticks of RAM make it quite capable of accommodating your computing needs, while unit can also play UHD Blu-ray Discs with HDR. As consumers seek out more compact technology to suit their homes and workstations, we'll likely continue to see more power being implemented into mini PCs and beyond.
