Intel NUC

I desided against the NUC because it was less cost effective to buy then the ACER revo one RL85 that I ended up getting.
 
Thanks. Never knew about this one. Might grab it. Was looking at the Intel Skull Canyon NUC but very expensive.

I am super happy with the RL 85. it actually looks good in the living room, it performs well, and it is very light on power. leaving it on the whole day downloading off a dongle uses fewer units then having everything off and unplugged except one charging brick.

take that as the mini PC is efficient or as a charging brick is really really heavy on power...

If you aren't too afraid of Chinese assembled pc's and don't mind too much for what it looks like, you should consider below:

I have a few of these running as POS machines. Cheap as hell, if something were to happen to them and I can't salvage I'll just replace. I got the i5's with 16Gb Ram and 128SSD. I also have a Intel NUC but prefer these due to price
 
I've had an i3 NUC running for nearly three years. It runs hot but hasn't skipped a beat.
 
Also take a look at the Gigabyte Brix. For some years my GB-BXi5H-4200 Brix with 16GB RAM, 500GB mSATA, 1TB SATA has been chugging away headless 24/7/365. It runs 2 VMs and manages various services on the home network.
 
I have a Celeron NUC as a media centre and can't complain.
