NUC PCs
Date Issued: 29th Oct 2013

Chip giant Intel produces the microprocessors - or brains - used in approximately 80 per cent of PCs. The firm acutely understands that desktop computers need to be made more appealing if they're to be lifted from the malaise affecting the industry.

Intel Next Unit of Computing (NUC)
Date Issued: 26th Mar 2013

It's a great time to be interested in small-form-factor computing. Once a niche hobby for home-theatre PC enthusiasts, small-form-factor designs are now capturing everyone's imagination thanks in no small part to the Raspberry Pi phenomenon.

There's more choice than ever before, but which computer case is right for you and which features should you look out for?

Chassis Airflow
Date Issued: 20th Oct 2008

The modern PC is potentially a mass of heat output and heat production hot spots. With CPUs rated at more than 100W of heat output, single graphics boards carrying similar ratings (and people want to run two!), multiple hard drives the norm, lots of memory and mainboards covered in heatpipes to combat toasty core logic and PWM circuits, a PC appreciably warming up a room when it’s working hard is no joke.

Akasa Newton S7 Aluminum Fanless case for NUC7i5/i3 Supports 2.5" HDD/SSD with front I/O Ports is rated 1.0 out of 5 by 1.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Alfafaf973 from Don't buy unless you don't need to use your NUC Review for Akasa Newton S7 bought in June 2020 I bought the Akasa Newton S7 (compatible with the intel NUC Box7i5BNH I’ve got). I was initially excited to have a fanless chassis assuming the intial NUC case is a little bit noisy in a quiet room especially under load (you can hear the fan). Unfortunately, my excitement faded almost immediately and turned to disappointment. It took me a good 1-1.5 hours to disassemble the original NUC and reassemble to the Akasa chassis (you need to be very cautious to avoid damaging your board). In addition, you need to accept loosing IR and microphone from your NUC chassis (they are so embedded so there is no way to remove them safely and anyway, there is no space in the Akasa chassis to fit them), the Wifi/Bluetooth (you need to invest in a Wifi and Bluetooth external antenna kit for the embedded intel chip to work properly) and the SD slot (this one was mentioned in the specifications). Once switched on, it is really quiet. However, and it is my biggest problem, it works well only if your have reasonable workload. In my case, Microsoft office applications, 20 tabs in Edge browser and a youtube video. I used a software called Speedfan to control the temperature. The CPU temperature was around 40 degree Celsius with this kind of workload. As soon as you try something more CPU intensive (like a light video editing software), the CPU temperature jumps to 65 degree, the Hard drives get hotter and hotter and after 10-15 minutes, the system just stops working with a message like ‘…overheat…cool down your system…’. I didn’t give up there. I ordered some very good thermal compound paste from Artic, re-opened the Akasa chassis and re-applied the thermal paste over the CPU. Same result. I forgot to mention that the Akasa chassis got extremely hot too. As a conclusion, if your workload is not too intensive, you will end up with a working solution with absolutely no noise. If you need to just go over what I've mentioned earlier, this solution is not for you as you won’t be able to use your system. The original NUC chassis/fan associated is noisy under load but it can sustain the load at least without rebooting your system. Akasa Newton S7 is a no-go for me.
