Asus NUC 15 Performance U9 275HX RTX 5070 Mini PC Kit

The Asus NUC 15 Performance is a black barebone mini PC kit that pairs an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor with a discrete NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU. It ships without memory, storage or an operating system, so it can be built up exactly to the user's needs.

Inside the compact chassis are three fans and two vapor chambers, two M.2 slots, a wide range of display outputs and Wi-Fi 7. Memory and drives are reached with thumb screws, with no tools required.
