The Intel Core i3-1315U processor powers applications with two Performance cores while four Efficient cores handle background tasks. The Performance cores have a base speed of 1.2 GHz and can be boosted up to 4.5 GHz. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics delivers quality visuals.

There are two dual-channel DDR4-3200 SO-DIMM slots available, supporting up to 64GB. There is also an M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 slot, an M.2 2242 SATA/PCIe slot, and a 2.5" drive bay.

Two front-facing USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 ports allow you to transfer up to 10 Gb/s with compatible devices. The rear panel includes two Thunderbolt 4 ports alongside a USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 port.

Thunderbolt 4 is a hardware interface that utilizes the reversible USB-C connector and features a maximum throughput of 40 Gb/s when used with compatible devices. The connector also transmits data via USB4 at up to 20 Gb/s, and dual-bandwidth DisplayPort allows you to connect either one 8K monitor or up to two 4K displays simultaneously. Additionally, you can daisy chain up to six devices from a single Thunderbolt 4 port.

Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) support provides access to the less congested 6 GHz band with compatible wireless networks. The 2.5G Ethernet port provides a fast and reliable wired internet connection.

Enhance your workflow by connecting up four displays through the dual HDMI and two Thunderbolt 4 ports.

[Yes] Bought this to use as my HTPC. It is powerful enough that I ditched my main desktop (3rd gen. i5 with 4 cores) in favor of this. It has fast ethernet, WiFi and bluetooth. The processor can reach 4.5 GHz turbo frequency. A total of 8 cores are visible in Windows 10. Every application runs faster compared to my desktop (which was not a slow animal). There are slots for a 2280 and 2242 NVMe plus one 2.5 SSD. The 2242 connector is specified for B-key which is not common in current marketplace. I am running two HDMI displays at 4k@60Hz. The box is about as warm as my palm - can't feel any higher or lower temperature. Two USB-B ports in the front and 2 in the back. Two USB C ports also in the back. Power supply is 90W. I am happy with this purchase. I will recommend this without hesitation. 5

[2x HDMI 2.1] Using this as a desktop replacement. It works great for that purpose no issues. 5

[5.3] I got this NUC to supplement my Synology DS918+ NAS that has been struggling with transcoding high bitrate Plex videos. It's such a joy to work with, so easy to access the expansion slots. It also sips power when idling, and doesn't really exceed 90W at full tilt. Also, you can customize the color of the power RGB LED in the CMOS setup. Just gotta dig for it. I'd include photos but apparently the review system here won't let me. 5

[2x HDMI 2.1] This is my 4th nuc. I have never by disappointed in any of them. Easy to upgrade. Runs great! 5

James	03/07/2024
[Integrated] We needed a PC that had 2x HDMI 2.1 and after looking a lot I decided to try this NUC out and it worked fantastic! 10/10 will buy again 5

[3.485 lb] I see one reviewer had issues with the WiFi at first. The key is to download the Drivers in advance, if possible, to a thumb drive (BIOS update, Chipset, LAN, WLAN, Audio, Graphics, etc). As we know, Gen-13 is Intel's final offering. (I also own the i7-1370P version, increasing core and thread count.) Gen's 11-13 use a P (performance) cpu instead of a U (mobile) cpu. I also own gen 8 and 10 units and they function very well. The latest units are very robust and utilize updated protocols. The OEM manufacturers are already charging Much more, so it's time to find an Intel while they're still available. I have compared this NUC13 i7 unit to many other mini PC's on the market, but the Intel NUC has, I believe, the best (and updated) features overall including TB4 and USB4, WiFi AXE. And the M.2 SATA port is an added bonus. 5

[2x HDMI 2.1] The Intel NUCs hit in (almost) every way for a mini PC. If you can use a small but powerful machine, definitely consider one of these. Here at B&H I got the barebones i3 kit (without the drive or any memory) and installed MS Windows, memory, and the drive myself. Two tips for self-installers based on the other reviews: 1) Pressing the power button for three but not four seconds takes you to a menu allowing you to set options like boot order, make sure LAN is turned on, etc. 2) If installing Windows 11, you might only need to download the wireless driver to a USB and run the driver installer from there after Windows install to get connectivity. Afterwards, Windows Update will help you take care of the rest of the drivers, BIOS updates, etc. 5

[2x HDMI 2.1] 12 cores, 16 threads..then add 1 TB M.2 SSD & 64 GB RAM..all in a package smaller than an old-school alarm clock. Open by loosening the four feet screws & very carefully open it up so as to not rip out the ribbon cable connecting the two halves. I wish they had models with at lease three network connectors so I can roll my own pfSense firewalls. 5

[5.3] Works perfect for my use. Just need windows 11, SSD, and ram and you are good to go. Just be aware the drivers are now from ASUS since they are the new company that is making the NUC. 5

[5.3] Among several NUC's at home, I replaced a 5th gen NUC with this 13th gen model. It serves as a media center for my music and photo collection, hence the 1 TB SSD and 16 GB memory. For those unfamiliar with the Intel NUC product line, they are small (4x4), very quiet, well-engineered and supported by a three-year warranty. Over the years, I have installed dozens for customers and not a single one has failed so far. The performance is impressive. The clip that keeps the power cord from inadvertently being yanked out is a fairly recent and useful addition. Intel has excellent documentation (assembly instructions, product specs) that I recommend. During installation of Windows 11, neither the wired Ethernet nor the Wi-Fi adapter were recognized which required an Ethernet-to-USB adapter. Others may add the network drivers during installation. Installing the Intel Driver & Support Assistant gets the optimal BIOS, firmware and drivers in place. Now that Intel has sold the NUC line to Asus, I hope that they will continue the development and support of this great product. 5
