    Phoronix: I Lost Interest With Intel's New, Fan-Less Bay Trail NUC

    Last month Intel announced a new, fan-less Intel NUC Kit, the DE3815TYKHE and it featured an Intel Atom E3815 SoC. While at first I immediately planned to buy one, now that they're available, I've changed my purchase order instead to another DN2820FYKH NUC Kit for Linux usage...

    the problem with the DN2820FYKH is availability
    i ordered one 2 month ago and still havent received it - intel said end of june is their next target date

    thats kinda fucked up if you ask me... but i think thats also the reason for the price of the atom version, the $138 DN2820FYKH is just not available (i found some shops selling it for 200-250 because they had a couple of ones in stock... at this price the i3 is more tempting)

      You can always pick a Bay Trail-D integrated into a mini ITX. Those are fanless too The most interesting at the moment would be the strongest 10W TDP quad: Pentium J2900. It's not available on motherboards (while Celerons are available) at the moment but on premade PCs.

          The Celeron J1900 is very similar and it's probably what I would go with for a mini-ITX system, since there are a lot of options for it: http://ark.intel.com/compare/78867,78868

          ECS would not be my first choice for a mobo brand...

            Nice if it had a little more memory, say like 2gb.

            I can see people using these block/mini-computers to make their own racksack/daypack mobile computers.

                Or for fun, something smaller than NUC: http://www.alibaba.com/product-detai...482924794.html Those are sometimes sold around $100 or less.

                  Then add a power supply and case, etc. It gets right back up there in price in a hurry.

                    I read on CPU World that Intel was discontinuing the 2820 and replacing it with a 2830 that included QuickSync video transcoding support.

                    Perhaps Intel will update the 2820-based NUC to a 2830 CPU.
