ASUS ROG has launched the ROG NUC, a groundbreaking gaming PC that packs immense performance into a compact form factor. This innovative gaming PC aims to redefine the standards for small form factor (SFF) PCs, delivering exceptional gaming experiences without compromising on size or capability.
Revolutionizing Gaming
At the heart of the ROG NUC PC is a choice between the powerful Intel Core Ultra 9 and Core Ultra 7 processors, paired with discrete NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 or RTX 4060 GPU. These high-end specifications ensure that the ROG NUC is more than capable of handling the latest AAA games with ease, providing gamers with smooth, immersive gameplay – making it a formidable contender in the SFF gaming PC market.
The ROG NUC is housed in a sleek 2.5-liter chassis, engineered with a focus on easy upgrades and maintenance. This design choice not only facilitates hassle-free cleaning but also appeals to enthusiasts who enjoy DIY modifications.
Power-Packed Performance
The ROG NUC PC leverages the hybrid architecture of the Intel Core Ultra 9 and 7 processors to ensure seamless performance across gaming and streaming applications. The inclusion of NVIDIA GeForce RTX 40 series graphics enhances this along with a plentiful gaming performance, bringing advanced AI capabilities to both gaming and creative tasks. The specialized AI Tensor Cores in the GeForce RTX GPUs for example, offers improved graphics performance and a range of AI-driven features, ensuring that the ROG NUC stands out in both gaming and content creation area.
With support for up to 64 GB (32 x 2) of DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM memory, the ROG NUC provides ample room for multitasking and running demanding applications. Additionally, the system includes three M.2 NVMe PCIe 4.0 slots for expandable storage, allowing users to customize their storage solutions to meet their specific needs.
Compact Design with Extensive I/O Options
Measuring a mere 180 x 270 x 50 mm (including the vertical mount stand), the ROG NUC PC’s 2.5-liter chassis is a testament to compact engineering. This design ensures that accessing and upgrading memory and storage is straightforward, which is a significant advantage for users who like to keep their systems up to date.
The ROG NUC offers a comprehensive array of I/O ports, including a Thunderbolt 4 USB-C port with 5 V / 9 V phone-charging profiles, four USB 10 Gbps ports, and two USB 2.0 ports. This extensive connectivity ensures that users can easily connect all their peripherals and accessories without any hassle. That naturally includes support for the ROG Raikiri Pro gamepad, making the ROG NUC a viable console substitute.
To add a touch of personalization, the ROG NUC also features a customizable ARGB logo and supports ASUS AURA Sync technology. This enables RGB light synchronization across multiple ROG peripherals, allowing gamers to create a cohesive and visually stunning gaming setup that reflects their unique style and mood.
