Not quite build from scratch, but the NUC from Intel is the best I've found so far

March 24, 2014 06:14PM
For about $550 I can get the NUC box with a core i5, 8GB of RAM, 240GB SSD drive, no OS. For $50 more I can get the low end Mac Mini, it has less ram but more disk space (not SSD though).

For that trade-off in price I would still pick the Mac Mini, it'll have a nice warranty, come with an OS I won't have to screw with, and I can upgrade the RAM later for not much money.

Dude, those are all twice the price or more of the Mac Mini. nt

You just have to spec the build by monitor size, customize the hardware (n/t)
