Intel NUC 10 Frost Canyon

I have not. But I must admit I'm very skeptical about this approach. The very old thread at https://embdev.net/topic/284710 shows that the problem occurs/ed even on Apple hardware, and appeared when users upgraded to 10.8 or later and were using a Dell monitor (mostly).
I've the problem on my Dell U2413 (made circa 2013), but not on a Dell P2418D (born in 2018). Too bad the fix consisting in an override of the display properties won't work anymore.

edit: I've plugged on the rear USB-C port a Dell adapter with USB-A/Eth/VGA/HDMI (DA200) and plugged my display to this adapter instead of NUC's HDMI port: same result, HDMI input is forced into YPbPr instead of RGB during the boot process.
Only difference is that a reboot of the NUC let me see the full boot process (boot loader menu, verbose boot) instead of a black screen until login screen pops up.
Time for a newer monitor :shifty:

Not that simple as I need a monitor with very good image quality and 4 inputs. Mine currently have DP, mDP, HDMI, DVI. I could go with any combination of DPs and HDMIs but I need a total of 4. The display also have to be "small", 24 or 25" max. I'll leave this problem for later :)

I would like to share some benchmarks of NUC10i7 (Intel Core i7-10710U) running Catalina.
Cinebench R15 gives about 30 fps, about half what I got from a venerable Radeon 5770 Mac Edition hooked to a macOS VM. Cinebench CPU score is very good though. I did not expect that much.
Motionmark is a browser benchmark, I've ran it in a fresh Firefox 79 install.

I couldn't find Cinebench R15 so I used R20 instead. The major difference I see is that I have hypertreating disable. Also I have SMCProcessor Kext, don't know if that has any impact on performance.

Yep, it works. I got the NUC10i7FNH. My slow speeds is probably because I am far away from the router and using 5Ghz. It connects and works more importantly.

On Cinebench R20, my NUC scores 2335 (balanced performance set in BIOS, hyperthreading On). But I do prefer R15 because it tests also OpenGL.
Your MotionMark score is insane :) what are you using as a browser?

Yeah, I notice the big difference. I use the default one with Catalina 10.15.6 which is Safari 13.1.2
