[Gearbest News]Recently, Intel announced that it has decided to stop direct investment in the NUC (Next Unit of Compute) mini computer business and change its strategy to allow its ecosystem partners to continue to drive innovation and growth of NUC.
It is reported that this is the second time Intel has ended its direct investment in the system business after announcing its withdrawal from the server machine business and selling it to MiTAC in April, which also means that it is about to withdraw from the NUC machine business.
Analysts believe that Intel's abandonment of the NUC business may be related to the competitive pressure it faces in the processor market. With AMD, Apple and other companies launching more advanced and efficient chips, Intel may need to refocus its strategy to maintain its leadership in the computer field.

In response, Intel said that this decision will not affect the rest of its Client Computing Group (CCG) or Network and Edge Computing (NEX) business. In addition, Intel also said that it is working with partners and customers to ensure a smooth transition and fulfill all current commitments.
According to Gearbest, Intel's NUCs are usually barebones, that is, they have no memory and storage. Users can customize NUCs by adding their favorite components to meet their specific needs. NUC kits usually include a motherboard, CPU, and integrated graphics card.
In fact, the launch of NUC allowed Intel to give a standard definition to mini PCs. With its advantages of small size, diverse functions, and superior performance, coupled with Intel's support for the platform, mini PCs have a place to play in the commercial market and have occupied a product category.
