You’ll pay laptop prices for Asus’ ROG NUC miniature gaming PC, which has Core Ultra processors and up to RTX 4070 graphics.
When Asus rescued Intel’s NUC brand of compact computers from the dumpster, I held out hope that the company might also revive Intel’s ambitious miniature gaming PCs. It did, but prepare for a little sticker shock — these systems may cost as much or more than a comparable gaming laptop. The company’s website currently lists two models of the ROG NUC, with what Asus tells us are tentative prices of $1,629 and $2,199.
But you do get decent connectivity in a box just two inches thick. There are six USB-A ports, four of them at 10Gbps speeds, an SD Express 8.0 card reader, a Thunderbolt 4 port with up to 12V fast charging for USB-C PD devices, 3.5mm headset, and 2.5Gbps Ethernet, in addition to two DisplayPort 1.4a sockets and an HDMI 2.1 port. Wirelessly, there’s an Intel Killer Wi-Fi 6E AX1690i and Bluetooth 5.3.
