PC requirements / user experience

I was wondering what the user experience is for different PC users with different specced PC's.

My system is a Nano Hog 4 (with the standard built in super widget) on a pc with this specs:
Intel 4770K 3.5Ghz Quad core
8GB RAM
128GB SSD
GTX760 graphics card with 2 GB Ram (2x 24" full HD displays).

Is use this system live as well as preprogramming with lightconverse on the same system.

It boots up really fast, 24 seconds from cold start until my showfile is loaded en running. (running Windows 8.1)
I like the overall performance very much, never have the feeling I have to wait for the desk.

It is a mini-ITX system however and I might buy a second PC only for live usage to make a smaller flightcase for the system.
Have been looking at Intel NUC, but only goes to 1.3Ghz dual core with "boost" (??) to 2.6Ghz, would this be enough?
The PC I have now would then only be used for the visualizer and maybe for backup.

What are you using for your Hog 4 PC and how happy are you with it?

    So here it is.
    It is far from finished and I made a few mistakes but it's working great.
    I'm probably going to draw something up in CAD and let somebody else make the mounting plate.
    My own handmade stuff doesn't look that great. It's just some kind of prototype.
    I used the original nuc case, cut a piece of it (I have the i7 version with 2.5" HD drive bay, which I don't need and is to high for mounting inside the nano)
    The i5 versions without 2.5"HD bay should fit fine.
    I was thinking about adding a power button but I probably wil not.
    Tomorrow I'll put in an aluminium box profile to mount the XLR for the worklight in and a powercon input.

    The touchscreen (24" Iiyama) fits in the lid of this case.

    I'll also make new sides for the nano
    18mm (3/4") ply is too thick, there's almost no foam between the case and the nano.
    I'll add a drawer for my keyboard so when I take it out of the case I'll have a real keyboard.
