타이거 레이크와 지포스 RTX 2060를 탑재한 인텔 미니 게이밍 PC - 팬텀 캐년

 (출처: 인텔)

 인텔이 3세대 Intel Enthusiast NUC 시리즈인 팬텀 캐년 (Phantom Canyon)을 공개했습니다. 팬텀 캐년은 Radeon RX Vega M GH를 사용한 전 세대와 달리 노트북용 RTX 2060을 사용해 게이밍 성능을 높였으며 Core i7-1165G7 (Tiger Lake-U)를 탑재해 CPU 성능도 더 높였습니다. 221mm x 142mm x 42mm 크기에 1.3리터 부피의 초미니 게이밍 PC로는 상당히 강력한 수준입니다.

(인텔 Enthusiast NUC 스펙 비교)

 성능은 크기를 생각하면 준수한 수준이기는 하나 128GB NVMe SSD + 16GB DDR4 SODIMM 버전의 가격이 1349달러로 비슷한 스펙의 게이밍 노트북과 별 차이가 없다는 점이 변수입니다. 노트북으로도 사용할 수 있는 게이밍 노트북이 더 나은 선택처럼 보이는 이유입니다. 

 그래도 NUCs는 초소형 PC 시장에서 나름 입지를 갖춘 제품으로 수요가 꾸준한 편입니다. 가격이 좀 아쉽지만, 인텔 레퍼런스 미니 게이밍 PC라는 점에서 눈길이 갑니다.
