Good. NUC Extreme has been utterly trash beyond 9.

NUC9 Ex: Mobo as a PCIe card was a neat idea, and the case was still small enough to call it a NUC.
NUC11 Ex: Taking the idea of the PCIe mobo, and cramming hotter components into the case. Never even thinking about putting the CPU on the rear side of the mobo so it's not sandwiched by the GPU.
NUC12 Ex: Minor update of 11, but had no foresight to accomidate 2.2~3 slot GPUs.
NUC13 Ex: How do you end up with a 13.8L case using a full custom mobo? At the point where it's no longer a standard PCIe card, maybe ditch that idea.
