And because these are TDP limited to 28W, you may only notice a small difference when gaming. The sweet spot is the i5 which in typical use (not maxed out) performs as well as the i7. i3-1115G4 – up to 4.1Ghz, 2-core/4-threads Intel UHD Graphics, PassMark 6396.

TDP Maximum is 28W, so these are midway between a full desktop and a low power use notebook processor. These use the 11 th Gen Intel Core G series 10nm processors. We tested with s Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, and it charges at 15W. This covers Qi earbuds, watches, iPhone, and Samsung (15W). It supports auto-negotiation for 5, 7.5 and 15W. It met or exceeded all specifications on the NUC. As the NUC does not use upstream charging, you can buy the lower cost 60W version. We tested with the Plugable TBT30UDZ 14-in-one dock (it and its other Plugable gen 2 docks use the Intel Titan Ridge chipset, which gives them TB4 and USB-4 support. The have 5V/3A and 9V/1.67A 15W downstream power. Thunderbolt 3 ports do not support upstream power to the NUC.

Shared work-space operators favour them too.
You will find them in many heavy vehicles, mining sites, construction sites etc., (they are reasonably power-efficient and can work on an inverter). You will also find them powering point-of-sale registers, inventory systems, and signage in shops.

Shopping malls use them as signage controllers being able to update instantly over Wi-Fi.
NUCs outperform notebooks with the same processor as they use mains power and have superior thermal management. The only thing it lacks is a PCIe bus expansion slot. They can run 24/7 and have a choice of ‘horsepower’ and features. A NUC is small, light and can be VESA mounted to the back of monitors, signage, and out-of-the-way places.
