What began as an impressive technology demo in 2009, appeared two years later as a new connector on the 2011 edition of the Apple MacBook Pro. Now the same technology is arriving in the world of Windows. Intel's Thunderbolt technology will drastically reduce the number of cables between computers and their peripheral devices.

Is the thermal compound that comes with the Intel CPU cooler a good product or do you need to replace it? Check it out.

Dernièrement, nous vous avons proposé le test de la Gigabyte Z68X-UD4-B3, carte mère équipée du nouveau chipset Z68 Express d’Intel. Aujourd’hui, 59Hardware a concocté pour vous un dossier complémentaire, portant sur l’une des deux « grandes » nouveautés qu’apporte le Z68, j’ai nommé: le SRT (Smart Reponse Technology).

Roll the clock back two years, and Intel was pushing hard on the idea that every product in the world could benefit from an Intel chip and that all of those chips should be interconnected. We seem to remember this being called the ‘computing continuum’. The chip giant is now prepared to put numbers and timescales together. KitGuru pulls out a non-connected pen and paper to make notes.

Last year the Intel introduced the Next Unit of Computing (NUC) and we were amazed by the power, capabilities and performance of what you could do with a four inches square. PC users around the world quickly found out that the Intel NUC was small yet powerful and used them as general use PCs, home theater PCs, media servers, and/or a multitude of other configurations.The first generation NUC left us impressed, but there was certainly room for improvement. Intel is severely limited by the NUC's ultra-compact device design, but the new Intel NUC packs more features into an even slimmer form factor. This is not a small feat as the designers had a long list of changes to be made. Besides making the NUC faster and more energy efficient, they also had to improve cooling and add better connectivity options. Read on to see how it performs!

We’ve spent pretty much all our free time this week using the Intel NUC Kit D54250WYK and if you couldn’t tell from our review, we love the new design and the Intel 4th Generation Core i5-4250U Haswell processor that powers it. In our review we showed you the general performance of the system running at stock speeds. The one question that we didn’t answer at that time is how it performs when overclocked. There aren’t too many things that you can overclock on the NUC since the CPU multiplier and bus speeds are locked down, but we can overclock the DDR3 memory. In the past overclocking the memory clock frequency has yielded some pretty good results for memory bandwidth limited applications and gaming benchmarks. Read on to see how the Intel NUC Kit D54250WYK performs with 1866MHz memory!

Intel's NUC, or next unit of computing, platform is a refreshingly new idea. Essentially what Intel have created is an ultra compact PC standard that they want to be the future of computing. Measuring in at just 12 by 11 by 4cm the Intel NUC is an impressive small standardised computer that is capable of more than you might expect. Since low power and small Intel CPUs have come quite a long way since the days of quite mediocre "nettop" Atom systems, such as a couple we reviewed a while ago based on the Atom D525, we have great expectations for the Intel NUC. The Intel NUC joins a rather crowded market place for small form factor systems and faces competition from Zotac's ZBox and Sapphire Edge PCs.
However, the NUC's similarities with its competitors end there because what the NUC platform does is try and carry over that high level of performance we'd expect to see from a desktop PC - or at least it should do better than its Atom based counter parts that other hardware companies are selling. Intel's NUC is going to be available with Celeron, Pentium, Core i3, Core i5 and Core i7 processors. Also since the NUC is a reference platform, we will see Intel partners able to create their own versions such as the Gigabyte BRIX we saw at Computex.
In any case the Intel NUC is the starting point of a drive towards smaller form factor everyday PCs. Today we have with us Intel's "DCCP847DYE" NUC and that means it is running a rather modest ULV Celeron 847 Dual Core 32nm Sandy Bridge based processor running at 1.1GHz with no hyperthreading and 2MB of L3 Cache.

A strong point of the NUC is the ability to connect three monitors, which is especially handy for professional applications. The inclusion of Intel vPro makes it an interesting device for the business segment. For consumers this feature doesn't have any applications, so for the consumer segment the Gigabyte Brix is probably a more interesting product. An advantage of the NUC is that a number of third parties will develop products specifically for the NUC.

Today we are looking at the Intel Next Unit of Computing (NUC)! This desktop PC uses uses a tiny form factor that measures just 4”×4”×2” and still managed to pack a mean punch thanks to the Third Generation Intel Core i3 'Ivy Bridge' processor inside. Read on to see how this system is assembled and performs after we install Windows 8 on it! Is the NUC the future of computing?

We take Intel's super-small, super-slim Next Unit of Computing (NUC) DC3217BY for a ride and see exactly what it has to offer.
