If It Looks Like A NUC and Sounds Like A NUC …
The NUC is dead, long live the NUC! Since Intel abandoned the NUC there has been an influx of NUC-like devices from a number of OEMs, including Geekcom. They are known for low cost systems and at $807 for the model reviewed at Guru of 3D, that reputation still applies based on what is inside the Geekom XT13 Pro, The i9-13900H generally runs over $600 and so accounts for the majority of the cost. In addition you get Iris Xe Graphics, 32GB of DDR4 which can be upgraded to 64GB, 2TB of PCIe 4.0 NVME storage with an empty SATA M.2 port to fill if you need.
The connectivity on the Geekom XT13 Pro is as impressive as the internals, two HDMI, two DP, a 2.5GbE RJ45 jack and both
WiFi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2. The USB ports include two USB 4 “Gen3” Type-C ports with power delivery and DP alt mode as well as three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A and a single USB 2.0 Type-A port just in case.
If you need a computing powerhouse measuring 117 x 111 x 38.5mm (4.6 x 4.4 x 1.5″) this Geekom XT13 Pro, or one of it’s less powerful and more affordable models are worth checking out.
