What does the warranty cover?

Our warranty covers all hardware faults, but please note it doesn’t cover accidental damage or software issues. However, we’re here to help with technical support for those matters!

At Reboot IT, we adhere to strict quality guidelines, ensuring that our refurbished products are not the same as used or secondhand items. We meticulously clean, test, and assess each device, replacing worn parts with high-quality components.

Description

Intel NUC5i5RYH Mini PC — Compact i5 Desktop, No OS Installed

The Intel NUC5i5RYH is a palm-sized mini desktop PC powered by an Intel Core i5-5250U (Broadwell) processor with integrated Intel HD Graphics 6000. Pre-configured with 8GB DDR3L RAM and a 120GB SSD, it delivers responsive everyday performance in a footprint smaller than a hardback book. No operating system is installed — compatible with Windows 10/11 or Linux. Backed by a 3-month Reboot IT warranty.

Key Benefits

  • Dual-core Intel i5-5250U performance — Broadwell architecture with Intel HD Graphics 6000 handles office productivity, web browsing, light media playback, and business applications without a bulky tower PC
  • Fast SSD storage — 120GB solid-state drive delivers rapid boot times and near-instant application launches compared to traditional hard drives
  • 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet — Dual-band wireless for flexible placement plus wired GbE for reliable, high-speed network connectivity when needed
  • VESA-mountable ultra-compact design — Mounts directly to the back of any VESA-compatible monitor using the included bracket, eliminating the need for a separate desk footprint
  • Mini-HDMI and Mini DisplayPort outputs — Drive two monitors simultaneously for expanded screen real estate, with adapters widely available for standard HDMI/DP cables
  • Four USB 3.0 ports — Two rear and two front-panel USB 3.0 Type-A ports plus one front USB 3.0 port with fast-charge support for connected devices

Performance in Daily Use

The NUC5i5RYH suits small offices, reception desks, digital signage installations, and home media centres where desk space is at a premium. The i5-5250U handles spreadsheets, email, video conferencing, and multi-tab browsing smoothly. The 120GB SSD means startup times under 15 seconds and snappy application response, making it feel noticeably quicker than same-era desktop PCs fitted with hard drives.

Because no OS is included, you install the operating system of your choice — Windows 10 or 11 via retail licence, or a Linux distribution like Ubuntu. This makes the NUC particularly appealing for dedicated-purpose deployments: point-of-sale systems, kiosk terminals, home servers, or lightweight coding workstations.

The unit runs quietly with a single cooling fan that rarely ramps up during typical office tasks, making it suitable for open-plan environments or library workstations where noise matters.

All-in-one Solution for Home Office

I was looking for an in-expensive all-in-one solution for my home office to replace my existing desktop and monitor. I found this EliteOne 800 on reboot IT for under $200. I wasn't sure what to expect. It arrived within two days!!!! I upgraded the RAM, replaced the HDD and installed Windows 11. This is unbeatable value and was the cheapest price online. Coupled with a 3-month warranty, Reboot IT are by far the best online refurbished retailer I have used. Awesome!

Fair tech for price

Fair tech for price, good specs for era, serves the purpose. The black keyboard is an interesting rubber like texture clearly by design to pad the screen and avoid the keyboard touching. Screen is great. Still looking for magic formula to enable computer use in the bright bright sunshine. Keyboard taps are loud for someone who likes silent touch. The perfect PC has to exist, like build a bear.
