NUC, or Next Unit of Computing, is the generic name for a series of small PCs that Intel has been working on. Based on a motherboard and CPU, these popular products are even smaller than notebooks and other PCs to meet any need.


However, Intel withdrew from the NUC business in October 2023. ASUS, which handles a variety of PC-related parts and devices, has taken over the business. ASUS is not only selling its existing NUC products, but is also eager to develop new products, and the four products announced this time are the first "ASUS NUC" series in Japan.



ASUS NUC 14 Pro



The ASUS NUC 14 Pro is the latest product in the ASUS NUC series, packing the highest performance in its class into a 117mm x 112mm and only 500g. It has an Intel Core Ultra processor for AI processing and up to 96GB of memory. The standard 2.5G Ethernet makes it ideal for use as a thin client terminal.
