Intel's specifications ( Figure 2) show that the i7-8559U processor has four cores, a base frequency of 2.7 GHz, a Max Turbo frequency of 4.5 GHz, and a TDP of 28W. You can see my review of the monitor here, and my review of a larger Dell monitor with a built-in KVM switch here. I plugged a Dell wireless keyboard and mouse (part number KM636) dongle into the monitor's upstream USB port this allowed me to use the same keyboard and mouse for both the NUC and my laptop. The U3219Q monitor has a built-in keyboard, mouse, and video (KVM) switch, which was extremely useful during my testing as it allowed me to switch between the 8i7BEH and my laptop with the push of a button. To conduct my testing, I connected the NUC to a Dell UltraSharp 32-inch 4K Monitor (U3219Q) via an HDMI cable. Figure 1 shows the hardware configuration of the device. I installed Windows 10 Pro on a 480GB Samsung 845DC Evo SSD drive. It's quite impressive how much computing power Intel can put in such a small case. For connectivity, the 8i7BEH has built-in Wi-Fi, 1Gb wired ethernet, six USB ports, an HDMI 2.0a port, and a USB Type-C port. The NUC that I used for my testing was an 8i7BEH with 32GB of RAM and powered by an Intel Core i7-8559U processor ( Figure 1) that had an embedded Iris Plus Graphics 655 GPU.
