Hi forum,
Thanks to this deal, I got the laptop to replace my faulty NUC11. This should probably go to whirlpool, but since the deal was on ozb, it might be more relevant here.
The deal from HN has finished, and the unit price has gone back up to $1598.
Just wanting to share that mine is on 2x32g ram, contrary to what's listed on the spec, and it's also pretty easy to open the case: use a physical gift card! Haven't found out how to swap the NVMe without having to reinstall Windows yet, maybe that's not possible.
So far the speakers are poor, can't hear anything with this heavy rain going. Haven't tried any games yet, but very happy that I could reuse all the parts from my NUC, and I'm not sure if it's more mobile than a NUC to be honest. The keyboard is not easy to use, the power adapters are about the same size as the NUC lol But going from Iris XE to 3060 is huge…
Last thing, if you are ever buying stuff from HN, do C&C. Saves at least half an hour you'd otherwise waste with the salesman.
Thanks.
I think.
