You're gonna pay $500 for essentially a case and mini itx motherboard? Why would you buy this if you're going to replace the CPU and PSU?

An i5 CPU costs around $100 used or around $150 new.
A motherboard is around $130
case $100
a cheap power supply around $60-$100
A total of $440-$480 if you are into DIY.
Up to you to decide if this is a good deal.

Edit: I forgot you need to add some fans on DIY, and yes, you can get a cheaper mini-case. Sorry, not an expert

I'm in for one, these are unique SFF desktops. I have a Nuc 11 extreme with a 4070 super FE and it's great. I wanted the Nuc 13 for a while but not for 1300. If you add up the cost of all the parts and it's prebuild makes it worth it.

I think you didn't factor in a cheap case. Having a 13th gen chip and a blower fan as its cooling sounds like a bad combo.

This is a spectacular deal! I'm going to get one too, then stick a 14th gen i9 in it.

I was almost into a Nuc 12, the one with an Intel Arc GPU built in, but then I gave up for some reason that I can't remember. I have the previous two generations with GPU built-in. Canyon? And the generation next to it. I will surely use it for home entertainment since they are pre-built, and I can't upgrade.

Appeals to my lazy side at $500, you can finish the build in like 5 minutes, lol.

We have 3 NUCs (not extremes) in our family and they've all had no issues. One is connected to an External GPU.

After the memory, the SSD, and the RTX4060 Smilie.. that makes it more expensive that a pre-built costco machine?

Why does a NUC need 750 watts? The whole point of the NUC is efficiency.

Does this thing support ECC memory? The i5-13600K does, but I'm not sure about the board.

because this is not a NUC (or at least not the way NUC was first introduced). this is really just a small computer with case that can fit a 3 slot GPU.
