Drivers for INTEL DC3217IYE
Intel says it does https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/71275/intel-nuc-kit-dc3217iye/specifications.html I mean for 20 bucks it's worth just trying and then using the auto intel-driver-installer utility to see what it finds.It probably just uses the generic legacy Intel HD driver pa

Planning to get a NUC8i7HVK (hades canyon); is it still worth today compared to other mini pc with Ryzen APU in the same 400-800 dollars range?
I've got one. It has better drivers on Linux. The windows one, due to the hybrid amd/Intel apu became unsupported in about 2022. I was dual booting up until a few months ago when I bought a Legion laptop. I'll be installing Ubuntu server on the hades-canyon to use as my server, the apu will be pheno

NUC5CPYH, troubles, and I feel like a newb.
I've got one of these, currently running HAOS (Home Assistant OS, a customised Linux server). It's fine for that purpose but it's a very slow machine for any kind of desktop OS. Windows 10 was very slow on it and the integrated graphics weren't powerful enough for 1080p streaming. Even Linux desktop

The journey ends here?
Intel had Hades Canyon 7 years ago, don't see what's so different here

$350 or less, don't overspend on something so old. Especially since the driver situation is iffy. But yes, typically any mini PC with a Strix Point APU that has a Radeon 890M should outperform the HVK in gaming by a bit. Intel's new Panther Lake chips are apparently even better. If you have any work

Considering trying a MiniPC + eGPU
I'm using an Intel NUC (Hades Canyon) with an eGPU (RTX 4060) over Thunderbolt as the base for mine. The Hades Canyon has it's own custom AMD dGPU and while relatively capable, it was limited when moving to the more demanding games, so I thought I'd try the 4060 to see how it would work. I'm still b

Can my Hardware run JellyFinn decently?
A modern system doing the same task would likely use the same idle, but not nearly as much when actually doing something. I still recommend you look into getting a used intel NUC. Something like this: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/89188/intel-nuc-kit-nuc6i5syk/specifications.h
