Highlights
Quality
Works and runs my games amazingly, is fast and has excellent graphics.
The most resource intense game i’ve tried so far is satisfactory and it runs perfectly, although i did have to turn the setting... Read More
Windows was clean of virus’, activated correctly, and had zero bloatware.
Fan noise is almost nonexistent likely do to the generous 32gb ram.
Price
So for gaming on a budget (if you dont mind some lower settings and framerates) this is awesome.
Highly recommended, you can't go wrong with this especially at the price, you will not be disappointed.
Just remember to tick the $150 coupon box when you order.
For the price with a coupon its well worth the price.
Shipping
I contacted support and they shipped me a replacement with no hassle.
Packaging/appearance
The packaging was very professional, wellprotected, and gave the feeling of quality from the start.
I bought this dandy little box to see how much faster it might be than my n100 box that i'm very pleased with.
So to start with it came packaged very nice.
Competitiveness
I bought the nucbox to run dedicated gaming servers, but it can do much more!
I have a $2k+ msi stealth w/rtx 4070 gaming laptop as my main pc upstairs and i swear this performs better.
For comparison, my n100 box (beneath the lower right of the monitor) has 16gb ram and a 4tb crucial ssd and is running linux mint 21.
The nucbox k6 has a slightly different port configuration than my other minis but none of that is an issue for me.
