## Description

Buy

Review: Excellent cooling performance - I had a NUC10i7FNH that constantly overheated (+95 C) even when running a standard amount of applications. I bought the Akasa turning case, and now it rarely goes about 70 C, even when running the "heavy Load" App to test out the cooling. Very pleased with my purchase. The instructions are a little light, though there are some good youtube videos of others fitting the NUC to the case. Also, you need to search out instructions for removing the NUC motherboard from the case (not straightforward in my case as various connectors were sticking to the case.) But once extracted and fitted, performance is better than I had hoped.
Review: Excellent fanless solution for 8th Gen NUC - The case turned my very noisy 8th generation i7 NUC with a faulty, overworked fan into a cool and silent machine. The instructions are clear and the Youtube tutorials are even clearer. It feels good quality and solid and it looks nice on the shelf. There are a few disadvantages to consider: 1. I lost access to the SD card reader. 2. it is significantly heavier. 3. it is bulkier.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it work with 
bxnuc10i7fnh
bxnuc10i5fnk
bxnuc10i3fnk**
A: I am not sure totally. Comparing the cases on the 8th and 10th gen NUC it looks like the outside connections (ports) are in the same places (I have the 8th Gen NUC8i7BEH). The 10th Gen has what looks like a case lock opening but that won't matter to the fit. What I don't know is if they have moved the CPU on the motherboard. The case is a heatsink, so the CPU needs to lineup with the connector on the Turing case for the CPU. That is the best I can tell you. Save some money and buy the 8th Gen NUC as I do not think you will be able to tell the difference performance wise. I installed mine last night and it works great. I use it as a Roon CORE.

**Q: Does it work with the nuc8i7bek? (it's not listed? only the beh version is listed for the i7)**
A: Thank you for your query.

The "NUC8i7BEK" is Intel's Product Code for the Slim Kit/Mini PC for the 8th Generation Core i7 Bean Canyon NUC. As "NUC8i7BEK" and "NUC8i7BEH" share the same mainboard, you should have no issue to use "NUC8i7BEK" with the Turing case. 

Kind regards,
Team Akasa

**Q: Does anyone know if this will work with the new 10th generation nucs coming out in a few weeks?**
A: Hello,

Thank you for your query.

We are currently working on a compatible case for the 10th Generation Frost Canyon NUC’s. If you can let us know your email address – we endeavour to keep you posted for further information and development news?

Kind regards,
Ivan 
Akasa Customer Service Team

**Q: Akasa, are you fixing the issues mentioned below in reviews?  a lot to spend to cool my nuc 10.... can you please let your potential customers know?**
A: Well the bigger problem is the onboard NIC won't work afterwards, I have to get an USB NIC.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent fanless solution for 8th Gen NUC
*by Y***N on 19 December 2020*

The case turned my very noisy 8th generation i7 NUC with a faulty, overworked fan into a cool and silent machine. The instructions are clear and the Youtube tutorials are even clearer. It feels good quality and solid and it looks nice on the shelf. There are a few disadvantages to consider: 1. I lost access to the SD card reader. 2. it is significantly heavier. 3. it is bulkier.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best NUC case but not without flaws
*by A***. on 24 February 2021*

I am having hard time to give it a fair score. I own Akasa Turing for 8th gen as well which I find absolutely perfect. This one is also dead silent, nice looking and well performing in terms of temps. My NUC10i5 reaches 85 Celsius after 1h stress test and works at 3500MHz without throttling. It idles at 30 Celsius. All good here. But... Akasa Turing for NUC8 installation is a peace of cake. I did it three times and never had any issues. For this one I needed three attempts to make it work. Firstly, I had power button issue mentioned by others. It did not move a bit and did not power my NUC after first installation attempt. After second one I had problems with LAN port - cable was loose and did not lock with characteristic click sound. After quite a lot of time I found out that NUC10 board does not fit well in mounting points. It is easy to screw it in incorrect position and this is what causes all issues. Everything worked perfectly when I firmy pushed NUC board towards rear I/O panel. Then it is perfect. So this is my advice: start mounting NUC board by screwing rear screws first while firmy pushing NUC board backwards. It really helps. All in all, case itself is perfect. I love it. But at this price tag I would expect better fit and easier installation as it was in NUC8 Akasa Turing. Also, this one is not on Intel QVL so you void warranty by dissembling NUC10iXFNK/FNH to install it in this case. I wonder why as Akasa Turing for NUC8 is on QVL. Definitely a step backwards. Finally, my unit arrived with a very tiny small scratch. It is visible only from close distance at particular angles bit again - I expect flawless product at this price tag. Due to all these cons I take one start from my score, despite the case being fantastic.
