ASUS has presented its new ROG NUC 2024. They promise to be particularly powerful, especially considering their compact size. In fact, managing to fit a Core Ultra 9 and an RTX 4070 in 2.5 liters of volume is not bad at all.
ROG NUC 2024: price and launch confirmed!
These new machines come in a variety of configurations. The base machine features a Core Ultra 7 155H (16 cores: 6P10E 4.8 GHz) along with an RTX 4060. In terms of RAM and storage, we have 16 GB of memory and 512 GB of SSD storage.
The top-of-the-range model is even more powerful. Internally, it now features a Core Ultra 9 185H (16 cores: 6P10E 5.1 GHz) with a similar configuration to the Ultra 7. However, the RAM and storage capacity has been doubled. Last but not least, the graphics section has been updated to RTX 4070.
These configurations are housed on an in-house designed motherboard. In terms of cooling, the ASUS heatsink allows the CPU to run at 65W, compared to a maximum of 140W for the GPU. Note that this configuration is housed in a box that occupies only 2.5 liters of volume.
Finally, connectivity has a card reader, two USB-A 3.2 Gen2 and a 3.5 mm audio jack on the front. On the back we find a Thunderbolt 4, two USB-A 3.2 Gen2, two USB-A 2.0, one HDMI, two DisplayPort 1.4a, one Ethernet and a Kesington lock. Ethernet benefits from a 2.5GbE networking chip, WiFi 6E is present and audio is handled by Realtek ALC256.
Sale price? Expect to pay around €1,560 for the smallest model and €1,950 for the largest. Availability is planned from May 24.
