Proxmox VE 7.2 on Intel NUC 12

[akosela]

I am considering buying Intel NUC 12 WSKI5 (64G RAM). Does it currently work with Proxmox 7.2 (latest official release) out of the box?

I have it running on a Nuc 11. I can’t see any reason why it wouldn’t work,

I'm using nuc 12 i5. most of the stuff works out of box. Only issues I faced so far are:
- igpu passthrough no success.
- Wifi and BT doesn't seems to detected.

Im also considering buying intel nuc 12 NUC12WSHi5.
Anyone else that has experience with it?

As of current both igpu and wifi/bt had been detected as the following when using lspci -v
passthrough igpu would result in the server crashing.

Compared to nuc8 the lspci -v output is really diff.

Though I would give an update for anyone searching for GPU pass-through on latest Intel NUC. Checked again today and GPU pass-through seems to be working on Proxmox 8.0, but I didn't have much time to test how stable it is. I'm getting some weird black screen at times, but I need to check further if this is a configuration issue.
Proxmox host is running version 8.0 and Kernel version: Linux 6.2.16-4-pve #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC PVE 6.2.16-4 (2023-07-07T04:22Z)
