This is the lower end version of the new Hades Canyon NUC starting at $799 for the kit that requires adding storage, RAM and OS. There's a higher end version that's faster starting at $999. I configured mine with 8 GB of DDR4 RAM and a 500 GB M2 SSD. It performs just under what I've seen from the Nvidia GTX 1050ti GPU. The faster NUC should deliver close to GTX 1060 performance.

I will try to get the faster one in and do a comparison!
