They aren't disclosing that until tomorrow morning. Apparently some items will be able to be shipped, but others will be pickup only. Cross your fingers for shipping on this one!
Not super low power like the 1037u, but this black friday fry's is doing the G3220 + a cheap H81 motherboard for $55.

Anyone know how efficient the G3220 is at idle?
Just wanted to add that I was researching some benchmarks, and it seems the 1037u (ivy bridge) outperforms both of the new haswell versions of the chip - the 2955u (1.4ghz) and 2980u (1.8ghz).
With only 2 watts TDP difference, maybe it makes sense to just stick with the 1037u? (Then again...
I just saw this Bay Trail NUC announced for Q1 2014:

Looks like it only fits a 2.5" drive though. Was hoping to find something just slightly bigger that would hold a single 3.5".
I've seen the 1037u...
Hi all,
I'm looking for something to replace my WDTV Live Plus since it runs so slow.
Ideally I'd like one small box that can double as a 1 or 2 drive NAS (3.5") and also be powerful enough to play 1080p media files.
Here are my requirements and requests:
MUST
- be low power since...
I've seen that case, but the big downside was no USB 3.0 ports. I think the nicest budget mini-ITX cases I've seen are the Fractal Node 304 ($55), the Cooler Master Elite 130 (though I hate its logo on the front), and the SG06 LITE, though that may need a custom power supply. All are a bit...
I'm looking at building a small combination htpc/nas that just needs to do the following:
1. Be very cheap
2. Low power (<20w, or as low as possible)
3. Be able to play 1080p video, and eventually 4k if needed
4. Be powerful enough to make my software interfaces snappy
5. Be able to play...
Hi all,
I'm looking to build a very low power (<20w) NAS+htpc type machine, and am basically trying to identify the cheapest cpu/motherboard combination possible that:
1. Can handle 1080p, and eventualy 4k
2. Is fast enough to provide a snappy interface to whatever software I run (my...
Any predictions for mid-level cards?
I'm looking at something like the 7950 in the $180-$200 range, and curious how this will affect it or what new alternatives might come out.
People here seem to only be comparing the i3-4330 and up.
What about the i3-4130? It's only $129. I agree that once you hit $150-$160 you might as well just go with an i5 and get 2 more cores.
Also, if you have a microcenter nearby, the i3-4340 works out to about the same price with the...
Pretty cool, but I'll definitely hold out until Haswell for lower power + hopefully onboard Iris (HD 5200) graphics. That said, I'm not sure a small form factor like this could manage the heat from high performance onboard graphics.
EDIT: Looks like they are using HD 5000, oh well, still a...
Don't get me wrong, I agree with everything you said. I'm currently waiting for OSX Mavericks before I buy the SSD, since I want to do a fresh install all at once.
The point of this thread was to simply decide which drive to buy though, since I have a few months before I need it. If I'm...
The Plextor M5P was as cheap as $190 just 9 days ago on Amazon:
http://slickdeals.net/f/6165194-256GB-Plextor-M5-Pro-Series-SATA-III-6Gb-s-2-5-Internal-Solid-State-Drive-SSD-190-Free-Shipping
It's not some kind of fictional situation. The same price came up a month ago as well.
