If you thought that Intel was going to slow down on its iteration in the SFF (small form factor) system design, you were sadly mistaken. It was February when Intel first sent us a NUC based on Broadwell, an iterative upgrade over a couple of generations for this very small platform, 4" x 4", that showed proved to be interesting from a technology stand point but didn't shift expectations of the puck-sized PC business.
Today we are looking at yet another NUC, also using a Broadwell processor, though this time the CPU is running quite a bit faster, with Intel Iris 6100 graphics and a noticeably higher TDP. The Core i7-5557U is still a dual-core / HyperThreaded processor but it increases base and Turbo clocks by wide margins, offering as much as 35% better CPU performance and mainstream gaming performance boosts in the same range. This doesn't mean the NUC 5i7RYH will overtake your custom built desktop but it does make it a lot more palatable for everyday PC users.
Oh, and we have an NVMe PCI Express SSD inside this beast as well. (Waaaaaa??)
Please add the link to win one, I am on mobile and cannot click here to learn more.
This unit does in fact have 4x USB 3.0 ports. It also had headers on the main board for 2x USB 2.0 ports.

I tried playing game on this. Practically, you can't play because of thermal throttling start after 15-20 min. But good for CPU intensive application. Game never work anyway.
PC Perspective - I was told by a vendor that the nvme m2 drives were causing a BSD on this unit (as a reason for why they didn't include the option in their build) - did you see any evidence of this?
No, looks like 4 USB 3.0 ports to me.
Great review, I hope you review the new Skylake Skull Canyon NUC that intel have said is coming soon. :)
you deserve ten times the amount of subscribers!
Would this be better than the i7 Brix that has the 5500 graphics?
+Gadget Addict This has an Iris 6100. So yes.
I have Idea for lid build in integrate heat exchange unit connected to replacement liquid cooler for CPU. Another is radio broadcast device and running Linux plus software define radio (GNURadio). Next all ready implement but badly it's project but in my opinion could adding blue-ray and the optical device could be more powerful and output 4K or 2K. So it could be many device that encapsulate NUC inside (ex. Car).
It doesn't have HDMI 2.0... No thanks. I'll keep waiting.
Glad that i'm not the only one. Also I heard that Skylake NUC will still onlpyp HDMI 1.4a so more wait.
I hope they soon come out a NUC with at least 4 core/8 thread (and thunderbolt ports lol).
These old (DX 8.x and some early DX 9.x.x) game titles will (depending on settings used) run pretty fast on any NUC with a Core i3 and up:
TES III: Morrowind
Doom 3 (original version)
Half Life 1 & 2 + expansions
Thief series: 1, 2 & 3
Gothic: 1, 2 (& probably 3?)
Dark Messiah of Might & Magic
Penumbra (all versions)
Halo 1 & 2
GTA III (+ possibly Vice City and San Andreas)
Risen 1
Age of Mythology
System Shock 2
That's still a lot of gaming fun *^_^*
*PS:* forget about AA: intel only supports 8x max. and using any setting will force a significant FPS hit :-\
Is there a better small box for i5 with support for a video card to make it a real gaming box? Thanks.
Looks good but that price ! Lots of cash for that machine

I own this same model - NUC5I7RYH. Can I build hackintosh on it?
They are just still too expensive.How stuck for space or portability do you have to be to consider this at just north of $400.
wow 6 views, talk about timing, i was just looking for a new video from you guys :D

Will this work for video editing (podcast video you tube etc) ?
Does this chip support gsync? I'm looking to play games like league or killing floor 2.
Does the fan get loud when under load?
i never go the point of this high end nucs this has to be like a super niche market no gamer would play games on this and for work i dont need something this powerful and expensive same if i was using it as a meadia center pc i would just get the low end nuc
Flea hermit "No gamer would play on this" is the most over used argument enthusiasts use to justify their rigs. The games real gamers are playing (search most played games, look at steam's own statistics) do not require the latest and greatest rigs. Real gamers enjoy games for their gameplay and not how hard they push their systems. You turn down the graphics setting because it gives you a competitive edge, it's kids that get distracted by shiny things...
yea i know that most played games are mobas,wow, and csgo i think but why spend the extra cash on an i5 or i7 when you can pay for less for an amd a10 or and i3 maybe an atom depending on res.i play csgo on my asus laptop wich has an intel core two duo at 1366x768 and i get over 100 fps same with mobas.
Flea hermit you know most people don't play games on nucs
Small question would this support both m.2 SDD and a regular Solid state drive? Both at the same time?
+james64468
YES, tested (also RAID support)
So the device support NVme?
You might not want to list that entire model number in the video title...
Thomas Riddle Why not? It's universal for each of them.
I like the NUC concept, but why are they so expensive? For the same money you get a powerful laptop with RAM, hard drive, LCD screen, trackpad, keyboard, batteries and a charger. With NUC you don't even get a full size HDMI port! Even the Mac mini seems cheap compared to Intel NUC.
i like to see a battle among`AMD Zen vs INTEL Skylake` SFF stuff like this in the future.
Just a reminder about this comment’s thoughts now that it’s the future
so i have to buy my own sd ram and storage ? so lets say i want 8gb of ram and i insert samsung 850 evo 250gb in there.....how much does it cost ?
xAsmir 537 U$S is the actual price of the nuc so maybe u can use some maths :D
Does anyone know if it's realistic for something like this to use an external PCI-E dock for discrete graphics? Would there be bandwidth issues if, say it was connected over Thunderbolt? I think I've heard of something of that sort before, but it was ridiculously expensive.
Will Chen I use a late 2013 13" retina macbook pro hooked up to a Sonnet SEL with a gtx 960. Thunderbolt is really the only standard right now that can handle the bandwidth of a graphics card, and because thunderbolt can be detected by the operating system as a PCI-E lane it allows an external graphics card to be possible. USB-C is still not there, USB-C only has 5gb/s of bandwidth while thunderbolt has around 20gb/s of bandwidth. While I don't see a point of doing an external graphics card on anything but a macbook (you know to take advantage of that 2560x1600 resolution display), I think it is possible on the NUC equipped with thunderbolt. I don't think this one is that model. Check out the tech inferno EGPU forums, you will get a lot of help there if you are thinking about implementing something like that.
RumourRS Much appreciated! I think that the possibility of a gaming setup with external graphics could really revolutionize the form factor of personal computers. We already have tiny, full-function desktops like the NUC and the Mac Mini, but the lack of GPU horsepower has always been one of the major drawbacks. With the industry push towards power efficiency and low TDP, there are less and less reasons to have full size ATX towers other than for workstations and performance cooling. Very excited to see future developments of the NUC and external graphics.
RumourRS USB Type C should be version 3.1 and 10gbps, and you can use that bandwidth so that a cable with a chip in it can convert that to display port: see this cable: www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=102&cp_id=10303&cs_id=1030319&p_id=12908
Paul Doyle That's a neat little gadget! Although I can't see myself taking my laptop apart every time I need to connect or disconnect the external graphics. It certainly works, just not very practical lol.
Oh yeah, it is definitely impractical due to the costs of a dock + gpu + power supply. It is a very niche market this is for at the moment due to the costs. I just did it to take advantage of my retina display (and games look absolutely amazing on a 13" 1600p display because of the outstanding pixel density (220 pixels per inch on this model i think?). I believe it is still a much better value to build a desktop though which you basically can after spending that much money on an external graphics card solution.
wow..that is faster than my chromebook..
Peter Anfindsen obviously, anything is more powerful than your chromebook.
Why couldn't it be much cheaper, damn it. Oh well.
xxgg This is the 2nd gen of nucs so I expect that they will have lower prices on the third one and the sweet spot will be the 4th gen of NUCs. It's a pretty brand new business model for intel so they have loads of room to improve it.
Okay, He can't get the USB ports right, how much of the rest of his review is right?
PcPer is a great tech channel/site BUT this is pointless at this price, not powerful enough to game etc and too expensive for anything else. A $179 MSI Cubi does everything needed for an office or 2nd home computer.
I suspect no one watching this channel will make such a mistake, but just in case: please no one buy this thinking you'll get away with playing CSGO on it! 40FPS is not even close to enough. I thinking showing that benchmark is interesting but please in future make very clear that this is not suitable for competitive games. I see so many people struggling to excel because they unknowingly bought the wrong hardware for the task.
