Slim, Configurable Mini Desktop for Professional Workloads

The ASUS NUC 15 Pro Slim Barebone (RNUC15CRKU50000U) is purpose-built for space-constrained deployments that demand high single-thread and multi-thread performance plus modern I/O. The Intel Core Ultra 5 225H (14 cores) provides a balance of four Performance cores for latency-sensitive tasks, eight Efficiency cores for background throughput and two Low-Power Efficiency cores for ultra-efficient threads. A dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) accelerates AI inference (≈13 TOPS) for content-aware workloads. The tool-less chassis supports dual DDR5 CSO-DIMMs, dual M.2 storage (PCIe 5.0 + PCIe 4.0), Thunderbolt 4, dual HDMI 2.1 and Wi-Fi 7 — enabling dense workstation-class capability in a mini form factor.

Core Capabilities — Connectivity, Compute & Deployment

💻

Compute Architecture

Intel Core Ultra 5 225H — heterogeneous 14-core design with discrete Performance, Efficiency and Low-Power Efficiency cores plus 18 MB L3 cache. Built-in Intel Arc 130T graphics provides capable display acceleration for multi-monitor setups and GPU-assisted workloads.

High-Bandwidth I/O

Dual Thunderbolt 4 (40 Gb/s), front USB-C 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20 Gb/s), three USB-A 3.x ports and USB-A 2.0 provide exceptional peripheral throughput and daisy-chain capability. Dual HDMI 2.1 outputs enable multi-display 4K/120 or 8K workflows via DisplayPort over TB4.

🌐

Network & Wireless

Tri-band Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) with 2×2 MU-MIMO and Bluetooth 5.4 for modern wireless performance plus a dedicated 2.5 GbE RJ45 port for low-latency wired connectivity.

🧩

Flexible Deployment

Toolless chassis with included VESA bracket supports wall, under-desk or monitor-back mounting. ASUS Power Sync enables unified power control with compatible monitors for simplified kiosk and digital signage deployments.
