ASUS NUC 16 Pro Intel Core 5 315 Mini PC Barebone, Black

The ASUS NUC Pro Mini PC Barebone is a compact desktop supplied without installed memory or storage. Its Intel Core 5 processor has six cores and six threads, with a maximum boost frequency of 4.4 GHz. It is designed for office, professional, or embedded use. Two SO-DIMM slots support up to 64 GB of RAM, so the buyer can choose the memory configuration. An M.2 SSD can be added for storage, but it must be purchased and installed separately.

Integrated Intel Graphics handles display output without a discrete graphics card. The black mini PC chassis is intended for desks and installations where space is limited. A 90 W power supply is included; this figure is not a measure of continuous power consumption. There are no built-in speakers, so audio playback requires separate equipment. Buyers looking for a preconfigured desktop should bear in mind the additional components and installation work that this barebone format requires.
