According to our barebone expert
The Intel Bean Canyon BOXNUC8i3BEK2 is a very compact computer that's suitable for use at the office and home offices. Thanks to its small size, you can place this small PC on every desk. Don't have any more room on your desk? If so, you can even attach this barebone behind a monitor. This way, you have enough workspace left on your desk. Thanks to the Intel Core i3 processor, you can use this PC to edit texts and sheets or to surf the web. On top of that, the Intel Iris Plus graphics allow you to easily play videos in Full HD and 4K. The barebone has room for up to 32GB RAM.
Note: This barebone is missing several key parts, such as RAM, hard drives, and an operating system.

Wonderfully small, hardly takes up space on your desk (the photo is actually not correct, the BEK version is a few cm flatter). With a printer, mouse, keyboard, you actually have 1 USB too little on the back. Fortunately, there are also 2 USB ports on the front. They are delivered as a package with an SSD (disk) and memory, but without Windows10. Assembling is nothing, just look online for a video and you'll know exactly how to do it. By buying an OEM license of Windows 10 online (just legal) you have a nice computer for 20-25,-.

That the article did not arrive on the promised day but after the weekend is not the worst. When I opened it I saw a damaged part. That was because the bottom plate was placed incorrectly on the nuc. Well actually not wrong, but in the factory the sticker on the bottom plate was placed incorrectly. On that sticker is an arrow with 'the way ahead'. Attached are two photos I took. I immediately started searching on Youtube and quickly found two videos where the relevant part was also damaged.
This can't be true, can it? I'm so sorry, because I would have loved to replace my desktop with an Intel nuc. Such a nice little box with super fast memory and m.2 ssd. But I really don't dare to order new ones anymore because I think all nucs of this type left the factory without checking. In addition, you always have to wait and see when you get your money back.

This NUC was a second chance product. For €50 discount I was willing to take the gamble. He just looked like new. Anti-static wristband and a fast SSD and 2*8GB Ram put in it. Then installed windows. The NUC is fine. I use it as a file server and media streamer and it works perfectly. Thanks to the GPU, you can actually do everything with it for everyday use. Prepared for the future by USB-C.
