ASUS - NUC 15 Pro vs GMKtec - NucBox K11

The NUC 15 Pro edges ahead on the Mars Score (72.2 vs 68.6), but the 3.6-point gap is small enough that the right pick comes down to which spec advantages matter to you.

Pick the NUC 15 Pro if you care most about tdp / thunderbolt. The biggest gaps in its favor are tdp, thunderbolt, volume. The single most decisive one: TDP — 5.00 W less. 65 vs 70.

The NucBox K11 similarly does not carry a headline advantage on the popular specs — look at the full table for category-specific deltas.

Both ship with comparable ram, storage, so those specs do not separate the two — focus on the differences below.

Bottom line: there is no wrong answer here — match the spec advantages to how you actually use the product. The Mars Score parity says both are well-rounded; the differences are about trade-offs, not quality.
