ASUS ROG NUC 16 Edition 20 Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus, 64GB, 2TB, RTX 5090, Win 11 Home Mini PC, Black and gold

The ASUS ROG NUC Mini PC combines a 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 processor with discrete NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics in a compact desktop format. Its processor supports 24 threads and reaches a maximum boost frequency of 5.5 GHz. This setup targets gaming, creative work, and demanding desktop tasks where both processor and graphics performance matter. Memory comes in at 64 GB of DDR5 running at 5600 MHz, enough for multitasking and memory-intensive applications. A 2 TB SSD stores the operating system, applications, games, and project files.

The black chassis has gold accents, giving the system a two-tone finish. Memory is installed as two 32 GB modules across two SO-DIMM slots, so both slots are occupied. The supported maximum is 128 GB, which requires replacing the installed modules rather than adding another pair. Integrated Intel Graphics is also present alongside the discrete GPU. Windows 11 Home comes preinstalled in its 64-bit version, establishing the supplied software platform.
