Price of this older NUC has halved overnight per Camel3x. At under $500 its just about worth considering if you want an ultraportable system with decent performance, although I'd almost be tempted by the Steam deck depending on use case.

Barebones system so bring your own RAM, storage and OS.

Intel Core i7-8705G
Radeon RX Vega M

Looks like its now OOS but still accepting orders.

    gpu between 1050 and 1050ti

    • brimmy11 on 23/07/2021 - 16:23

      It's a lot closer to a 1060 than a 1050 Ti.

      • XanderYuan on 23/07/2021 - 16:24

        Have a look at the cpu, it’s not the higher spec one

        • brimmy11 on 23/07/2021 - 16:46

          Ah yep you’re right 1050 - 1050 Ti. I thought this was the higher spec one.

    Temporarily out of stock.

  • white300 on 23/07/2021 - 15:19

    Missed out :/

  • mimik13 on 23/07/2021 - 15:23

    WTF. I was eyeing this for the last month or so just waiting to pounce on a deal. Was this an actual deal or pricing error?

    • HenryGalilei on 23/07/2021 - 15:31

      it's been on this price for 10 days. Went to Back Order for at least 9 days. so i didn't bother to post the deal.

    • cyssero on 23/07/2021 - 15:40

      Intel just announced their replacement for this a couple of days ago so it does make sense it's halved. New model has space for a discrete GPU however the listed model can have the CPU upgraded to 11th gen.

        The successor to this is the Phantom Canyon NUC with an integrated RTX 2060. It sounds like what you're referring to is the Beast Canyon NUC, successor to the NUC 9 Extreme.

        • cyssero on 23/07/2021 - 16:10

          Apologies I was, and correct you are!

  • scud70 on 23/07/2021 - 15:28

    Wow i know it's older but dang… lol no wonder it went OOS so quick…

  • hippyhippy on 23/07/2021 - 15:43

    Is this more powerful than steam deck?

    • scrimshaw on 23/07/2021 - 15:48

      Official driver support is no more, see past discussion https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/9174019/redir

      This product should only be purchased if you just want to play around with old or retro games, since there's no guarantee that new or upcoming games will continue to play nice with the GPU.

      Steam Deck is using RDNA2 Graphics which is a couple of generations ahead and it's also paired with quad channel DDR5 memory. Most likely it'll be faster than Vega M simply due to having newer architecture and better driver support.

      • brimmy11 on 23/07/2021 - 16:18

        The APU graphics performance in this NUC is way more powerful than the Steam Deck will be.

        This NUC has 20 Vega CU's, in the best case scenario an RDNA 2 CU is twice as performant as a Vega CU. There's also the fact that this NUC has a 4GB HBM stack for VRAM which has an effective memory bandwidth of 179.2GB/s. The NUC power limit is also much higher.

        The Steam Deck also has quad channel "LP"DDR5, not DDR5. LP has half the bitrate (32-bit vs 64-bit) so quad channel LPDDR5 has the same throughput as dual channel DDR5 if the frequencies are the same. The Steam Deck will have an effective memory bandwidth of 85GB/s~.

    These aren't officially support by Windows 11 either btw…

    • Fuzor on 23/07/2021 - 16:04

      I thought 7th gen Intel and later are supported by Microsoft?

      • Anubis on 23/07/2021 - 16:08
        +2

        Its 8th gen onwards and this isnt a true 8th gen

        • Mechz on 23/07/2021 - 16:27

          It will still work, I have it running on 6th and 8th gen without issues.

          • Anubis on 23/07/2021 - 16:33
            +1

            @Mechz: It’s working for now, but doesn’t appear on official support list if they Make TPM mandatory.

            • sharky_k on 23/07/2021 - 16:56

              @Anubis: True, but Windows 10 is supported until 2025 anyway.
              I don't think any PC you buy for $500 is going to be worth using at that point anyway.
              OOS now, but if you got one, I think this was a cracker of a deal for 1080p gaming

            • Mechz on 23/07/2021 - 17:33

              @Anubis: TPM is often disguised under different names too, so no doubt there'll be a few who don't know their system can run it easily.

              • Anubis on 23/07/2021 - 17:51
                +1

                @Mechz: This was confirmed as not compatible unfortunately. I would have jumped on it otherwise.

    • WhiteEvo6 on 23/07/2021 - 18:19

      Computers aren’t supported by Windows 11 🤣

    Damn, would have snapped it up. Obviously plenty snapped it up before me. Service me right not to check ozbargain for the last 5 mins.

        lol.

  • Julzx on 23/07/2021 - 17:14

    I have no need for this but I'd buy it for this price.

  • Grissallia on 23/07/2021 - 17:29

    Dang. My NUC Plex server packed it in a couple of months ago, and this would have been a good replacement.

    • eraser215 on 23/07/2021 - 18:58

      Complete overkill!

      • Grissallia on 23/07/2021 - 19:08

        Nope. Was also running Steam games off it, but it wasn't quite up to the task.

  • buzurk on 24/07/2021 - 10:37

    Damn, i missed out, been wanting one of these for a while.

  • GoonSack69 on 06/08/2021 - 17:20

    My NUC order from this deal https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/631754 got canceled because their supplier informed them that this item is no longer available.

    Hope this one doesn't get canceled.

    • HenryGalilei on 10/08/2021 - 17:17

      same, my order for this Hades Canyon has been cancelled for the same reason.
