SINGAPORE, August 16, 2024 — ASUS today announced a comprehensive range of AI-enabled ASUS NUC products, including NUC 14 Pro, NUC 14 Pro+, ROG NUC, and NUC 14 Performance. The ASUS NUC brand signifies a commitment to technological excellence, redefining performance and user experiences through innovative design. These cutting-edge small-form-factor and mini PC solutions feature advanced AI capabilities, fulfilling the needs of a wide range of users ― from general consumers to high-end prosumers, gamers, and business professionals.

Advanced AI

Advanced AI tasks require significant graphical processing power, making a discrete GPU crucial for accelerated image processing. The ROG NUC and NUC 14 Performance feature up to an Intel® Core™ Ultra 9 CPU and NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4070 GPU.

The ROG NUC, with its compact 2.5-liter form factor, excels in handling both demanding AI workloads and AAA gaming. The NUC 14 Performance, on the other hand, is perfect for commercial and edge applications, supporting up to five(i) simultaneous 4K displays for high-vision computing and versatile commercial use.

Everyday AI

As AI advances from cloud platforms to integrate accelerations in essential PC apps, having a powerful, cutting-edge mini PC is more crucial than ever. The NUC 14 Pro and NUC 14 Pro+ feature 10+ TOPS NPUs and are designed for everyday AI tasks. The NUC 14 Pro can be specified with up to an Intel Core Ultra 7 CPU and leverages its CPU cores, integrated NPU, and Arc GPU to enhance AI workflows, delivering a 45% performance increase over its predecessor, the NUC 13 Pro. The built-in Intel vPro® Enterprise platform ensures business-grade AI performance, security, remote manageability, and stability. The NUC 14 Pro has a sub-0.5-liter chassis with tool-less access for easy upgrades and maintenance.

The NUC 14 Pro+ is an ultra-compact PC that delivers superior performance to run generative AI workloads. It features energy-efficient WiFi Sensing and a 5 x 4-inch anodized aluminum chassis with tool-less access.

Next-level AI

TOPS, or teraflops operations per second, is a measure of how many trillions of operations an AI PC can perform each second, under ideal conditions. Next-level AI NUC CPUs can easily triple-digit TOPS in performance alone. Looking ahead, ASUS is slated to launch the 'Lunar Canyon' AI mini PC in September 2024, featuring the Intel Lunar Lake platform housed in a sleek < 0.6-liter form factor, This upcoming model promises to push the boundaries of compact computing with advanced AI capabilities.
