Comments

Picked up the NucBox 2 barebone for $280. The i5-8279U is snappy for everyday tasks and light work. Just remember it's barebone — you'll need your own RAM and storage. Small footprint, runs cool. Good little machine if you already have parts lying around. Not for heavy gaming, but solid for a budget home server or office box.
