NUC
Intel DN2820

£92.98
REPLACEMENT
MSI J1900I

£44.58
Powercool Q5 Mini-ITX 120w Chassis
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Powercool-Q5-Min...B008XI7FB8
£40.99
TOTAL (replacement) = £85.57
NUC has an additional wifi, bluetooth and built in IR. You can pick these up easily for the difference in price. Both have same GPU but the J1900 is a quadcore. while the NUC is dual core. Even the J1800 (dual core) is more powerful than the NUC and thats even cheaper.
So now tell me, is there any reason why anyone would consider the NUC over the MSi J1900i? yes NUC has smaller footprint but the powercool case isn't that big. I dont think you could beat this and should be reccommended instead of the NUC
