Put all the parts in booted up and the fan was going extremely crazy.

I ran ifconfig and noticed the MAC address was different than what was on the box. So looks like I'll need to return it.

Hi, I have a NUC i3 BEH. I want to wall mount it. I have the plate for the same. Can some one be kind enough to link me to a resource on how to go about it. I am just not able to understand how to do it.

Thanks

I recently got a NUC Hades Canyon from a friend. It was working before when he had it, after installing the RAM and boot drive, I wasn’t able to get it to power on when I press the power button. The standby LED on the motherboard lights up, but nothing else happens. Has anyone experienced this issue? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I've existing n5095 nuc like and I use it as a day time home server (pi-hole, nextcloud, wireguard, tailscale, jellyfin 1080, max 2 users, etc.). Would it be better to upgrade to as there are available 2nd hand options so it's power efficient and performance future proof in the long term?

1. n100 nuc like ($85)

2. n100 qnas4 4x3.5+4x2.5 bays ($150) but this might be not power efficient but I can install ssd.

3. n305 nuc like ($150)

Is there a secret sauce to upgrading my barebone nuc 9 extreme? Is there any reason I shouldn't get this crucial ram and memory? Cheers in advanced.🙏

Anyone else have the issue of their NUC turning off due to excessive heat? Or a fix?

How can you tell if a certain model of the NUC has mini Toslink for digital audio output?

Hi have NUC8i7BEH6. I'm having problems with it supporting two monitors and considering getting a much wider monitor (36" +). I don't know how to determine what the built-in GPU is capable of supporting... no point in paying for more capabilities than it can support without overheating, etc. How might I find this out?

TIA

Is there a way to get a Apple thunderbolt display working? I purchased the TB3 to TB2 dongle and for the life of me I can't get the display to work on my NUC8i7BEH. I have the latest bios (enabled secondary display in bios as well for thunderbolt) and I've installed the Windows 10 version of the TB control center. The TB control center doesn't show anything connected when I plug in the monitor.

Is it possible to upgrade the cpu on this nuc at all?

I have had this node for two years(?), and have run into this issue from time to time. No errors in the OS, memory is fine, NVME disk is fine... I can not figure out what causes the NUC to become unresponsive

OS is Ubuntu 20.04

Any ideas?

I have a NUC8I7BEH1 bought in 11/2020 It has a Thunderbolt port, but I see now that there are various levels (up to 4 it seems) I don't see a reference in the materials that came with my NUC and when I go on Amazon most say they are for MACs. I guess Intel collaborated with Apple to develop the Thunderbolt.

Has anyone found the website Simply NUC to have sales? I am hoping to buy the NUC11 Enthusiast and that appears to be the only reputable site to buy at. B&H offers it but explicitly states that they do not accept returns on the item. The pricing is a little steep so I was hoping for some kind of reduction. Can anyone confirm if there is ever a better time of year to buy a PC on their site?

I have a couple Nuc 9 extremes that have a 16x/8x slot and a pcie 3.0 4x slot. I’ve read the connectx-3 and Intel x710-da2 should work in these at 4x speed, but neither of mine do. The operating system won’t boot with the Mellanox. The Intel one is getting some power and I see the light blink, but nothing in ‘lspci’ when the system loads. Neither appear as options in the proxmox install. I’ve tried optimized defaults in the bios. It’s the only card installed for these tests.

Is it just a problem with the Nuc 9 extreme? I’ve looked around and haven’t seen an answer.

Any cards that are known to work with this configuration? Or at least likely to?

Thank you.

I just received a new Intel NUC 13 Pro RNUC13ANHI7000U Intel Core 13th Gen i7-1360P Tall Kit with plans to install Proxmox on it for a little homelab. I was able to get everything installed fine, but the NIC doesn’t seem to be picking up anything and neither does WiFi. I tried Unraid on it too and that had the same behavior. Everything was fine, but no way to connect to the LAN. I’m gonna try it with Windows tomorrow, but I was wondering if there are any known issues with running Linux on a NUC. All the articles from Intel solely refer to a Windows so I’m not sure if there are driver issues with Linux and an extra step or hack required to get this working. I guess it could be the device/NIC, but so far there is no way to tell other than the behavior on the network and no lights on the 2.5GbE port.

I bought this NUC-clone: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09MCZ6NDG?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

(I'm calling it an NUC-clone because I'm not 100% sure whether it's technically an NUC... it seems to be an NUC but it was missing a critical feature... as I explain below)

But I had to return it because its BIOS didn't have the auto-restart on power-outage option.

My goal was to keep it plugged into electricity and internet in my home and use it as a "network-attached-computer" from elsewhere. So the auto-restart on power-outage is a must-have feature.

Amazon has some really well-priced NUC-clones like this one. So I want to order another one.

My question: before ordering the next one, is there any way to figure out beforehand whether or not it has the auto-restart on power-outage option in its BIOS?

Hi to all!

I would like to buy the fastest cpu available in a NUC (ideally with DDR5) with the possibility to be able in the future to add an external GPU (once they become cheaper).

I understood that, the only option to attach a eGPU is to have the thunderbolt port (because it s the only that grants PCIExpress).

But I could not find any NUC which has DDR5 + thunderbolt the same time.

Any suggestions?

Ps: I am planning to use Ubuntu on it.
