Hi there.
Thanks to Quartz, on another thread, I have decided to buy myself a new NUC, rather than try and cram my current i3-2105 mATX build into a tiny case with PICO-PSU.
Anyway, I have been doing a bit of research and it is clear that:
1. I should go with barebones as it is cheaper to get the extra bits, myself, separately and
2. I need to the taller NUC models as I want to run Linux and Windows off a larger SSD
I figures I should go with an i3, rather than Celerons/Pentiums and have found these two:
NUC7i3DNHE and the NUC8i3BEH2
I would have assumed that the 8th generation would be more expensive but most of the sites that I have visited are selling the 7th generation for more.
What is it about the 7th that seems to make it more desirable?
What should I go for?
