ASUS NUC 13 RNUC13L3KV700002I Black i7-1370P

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

For £638.74 ex-VAT, this ASUS NUC 13 barebone with an i7-1370P is a solid choice if you want a compact, quiet workhorse that’s easy to deploy in a small office environment or for “standardise the desktops” setups. It’s especially worth considering for roles like general office productivity, light CAD/engineering viewers, virtual meetings, and daily knowledge-worker workloads where you care more about responsiveness and reliability than flashy design. NUCs are also just practical: they’re simple to manage, take up minimal desk/shelf space, and tend to be straightforward to keep consistent across multiple users.

That said, I wouldn’t buy this as a “deal” for people who need a lot of local storage, lots of expansion, or heavy-duty graphics—barebones means you’ll still be paying to fill it out, and that can change the real total cost quickly once you factor in your preferred RAM and drives. Also, if your users expect lots of ports right on the box, you may end up relying on docking/hubs anyway. In short: buy it if you want a cost-effective mini-PC platform with a decent CPU and you’re comfortable selecting your own memory/storage; skip it if you want an all-in-one ready solution or you’re running demanding graphics or storage-heavy workloads.
