2026 verdict
Does flagship Intel silicon justify its price here?
Not by this scorecard: the Geekom GT1 Mega Ultra 5 wins on price, running an entry-level Intel Core Ultra 5 125H against the NUC 15 Pro+ (Ultra 9 32GB + 1TB)'s flagship Core Ultra 9 285H with Arc 140T graphics. The NUC counters with a higher owner rating, though that score is still based on only a small number of reviews compared with the GT1's much larger base. Memory, storage and warranty tie exactly, both run 32GB of DDR5-5600 RAM, a 1TB SSD and a 3-year warranty, and both include an NPU. Where the NUC pulls ahead is ports, Thunderbolt 4 and DisplayPort 2.1 versus the GT1's plain dual HDMI, while the GT1 counters with a bundled HDMI cable, an SD card slot, a Kensington lock and a 3.5mm audio jack the NUC skips. Choose the NUC 15 Pro+ (Ultra 9 32GB + 1TB) for the flagship CPU and pro video output; choose the Geekom GT1 Mega Ultra 5 for a much lower price with practical everyday ports.
