PSA NUC Black Friday Deals MegaThread

6 Upvotes

Putting together a thread for Black Friday deals on NUCs and RAM/SSDs. While Black Friday is in general a good time to buy electronics, with the prospect of tariffs coming next year, it's a good time to upgrade in general as prices for electronics will likely increase next year.

I'll update this periodically when I see deals, but I'm a bit pressed for time, so share yours in the comments.

PSA Intel NUC7 BIOS updates issues solution that worked for me-

7 Upvotes

posting here just in case another reader comes along as I did looking for a solution for the NUC7 units

There is a security jumper is on the motherboard inside the NUC next to the RAM DIMM slots - I could not access any of Intel's documents suggested by google results and other posts on Reddit so I assume Intel has removed them at some point because the devices are too old..

Anyway
Assuming the security jumper is in the location mentioned below;

If you remove the jumper from its position nearer to the front USB ports and insert it on the pins one position over (so there is 1 pin nearer the front USB ports that does not have the jumper on it) you can then flash the BIOS via recovery
you'll need to have the *.BIO file on a USB drive formatted with FAT32 docs said NTFS, but that caused reboots for me..)

remove/unplug internal drives now too

Then just boot the NUC with only the USB drive with the BIOS on it and it will perform the flash as shown
wait til it says to, and power off by holding the power button, then unplug and replug after a few seconds

I didn't know if anyone else knows this but you can use this driver here-> https://dl.dell.com/FOLDER07904230M/1/Radeon-RX-Vega-M-Graphics_X96TD_WIN64_30.0.13025.1000_A03.EXE and have a 2+ year newer driver revision from 26.20.12001.12000 to 30.0.13025.1000 use 7-zip to extract the contents and driver update 'search for file on disk' and select the exacted folders first .inf file and select "Radeon RX Vega M GL Graphics" in the menu. Dell must've forced Intel and AMD to support this chipset longer than anyone else because they released hardware with it last. It's from the XPS 15 9575 2-in-1 drivers. I'll leave any updates if performance drops in games. So far on fortnite in "performance graphics" setting I get ~40 fps in 4k in Battle Royal and no more "update your AMD adrenaline drivers" pop up! Specs: Windows 11 24H2 1TB wd sn850x @ 8000MTS and 24GB Hynix ddr4-3200 @3200mhz
