Psst. The seller took my offer for $75 each on these (NOTE: they do not come with AC adapters, so factor that into your price. Or if you have some old Toshiba chargers laying around, they're the exact specs as the 19V a NUC comes with.)
And if you just so happen to offer them $20 each for these, they might just take that offer too. ;D
Regarding the adapter power requirements, It looks to be the same exact power req for the one you used. Shouldn't be any different to power than yours. I just am trying to figure out the cleanest way to do this with power delivery. There is a 2x2 mini molex on the NUC board, but unfortunately it's for power input, not output. The NUC5I5MYBE is a really neat little board for homelabers and just DIYers in general.
EDIT: Page 58 shows 540 MB/s (that's MegaBytes, so theoretically 4320 Mb/s) so that's not going to be enough for 10 Gbe, but it would work for 4x 1Gbe which is what I'm planning to do.
EDIT: The more I look, the more I realize I am better off using a M.2 E Key to NVMe adapter and the adapter you used in your original plan. Gives me faster SSD speeds, and a full 2x bandwidth for the NICs to use.

This is what I'm running on my NUC8i5BEH and NUC8i3BEH models.
Higher clocked stuff will only run at 2400. That's a limit on Intel's side, the way I understand it.

If you're intending on running Kubernetes or ESXi on your NUCs, you might consider investing the bucks in populating your boxen with these, especially with RAM prices where they are now.
If I were rebuilding my NUC lab this is what I'd do, but alas, my NUCs are DDR3.
