The motherboard on my oldish Nucleus RevA has died (probably of old age but who knows).
I managed to salvage the exact some spec’d from a barely used Intel NUC i3 gen7 and swapped everything from the old board to this (including the original drive, memory, etc.
Working fine so far, but I do not know if there are any specific optimization parameters to be set in the BIOS to match the original board, apart from selecting “fanless” in the advanced menu.
Anyone can share the original BIOS settings (the ones that ‘might’ be different from default ones)?
Thanks in advance.
Oh, and to those who will say “why not sending the Nucleus to Roon for a new motherboard” - I was not going to spend that much
Hi Daniel,
I was - followed the suggestion from the community here and added the BIOS settings in the article above.
I expect those to be applicable on a ROCK install on a NUC but was (am) unsure if they are the same for a Nucleus install, since it’s fabless and the OS might differ.
Can you share some thoughts on that?
Appreciate all help here!
I would advise checking for a setting called Intel Turbo boost and making sure that this is off, as well as the fanless option you mentioned earlier. I believe these would be the ones of concern you need to change. Hope this helps!
Thanks Norris.
I looked for it in Bios but all I could find under “Power” was “enable Hyper-Threading” which I turned off.
Is this the same?
Thanks for helping!
