Intel's specialty isn't just in making processors, of which their latest 12th Gen Alder Lake series has got many of us to believe that happier days are coming for the blue company - with processors that could finally compete with AMD's own Ryzen flagship processors.

Also known as Dragon Canyon, the new Extreme Kit is essentially a refresh of last year’s model – with the same chassis and internal layout as its predecessor. The big change is, of course, the switch to Intel’s 12th Gen Alder Lake platform, which has already proven to be leaps and bounds more capable than the 11th Gen Tiger Lake silicon that was used in the NUC 11 Extreme Kit.

5 Steps To Ensure Your Computer Security
FOR MANY YEARS, HAVING ANTIVIRUS INSTALLED on your PC was all that was needed to keep you safe from cyberattackers. And where Macs used to be the \"safe\" alternative is unfortunately no longer true.
MEANINGFUL REFINEMENT

BIGGER DISPLAY, BUT WHAT ELSE?
