Max Creativity. Mini Footprint

Built for creators

Step into next-gen content creation with ultrasmall and versatile Intel® NUC 12 Enthusiast Mini PCs and Kits—the first Intel® NUC Mini PCs to feature Intel® Arc™ discrete graphics. 

Performance starts with an Intel® Core™ i7-12700H processor and the new innovative performance hybrid architecture that delivers power and efficiency to stream, edit, record, browse, and play without skipping a beat.

Intel Arc discrete graphics offer a host of features to accelerate intense creative workflows, now and in the future. In addition to being the world’s first GPUs to support hardware-accelerated encoding for AV1, Intel Arc GPUs feature AI accelerators, real-time ray tracing, and Intel® Deep Link technology that harnesses the full power of the CPU and GPU to accelerate compute-intensive tasks. 

Every system supports up to 64GB dual-channel DDR4 memory, three M.2 PCIe slots—including two Gen4 slots—and the latest in wireless connectivity with Intel® Killer™ Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth® 5.2. Dream setups are made easy with horizontal or vertical placement and fast connections via two Thunderbolt™ 4 ports and six USB 3.2 Gen2 ports.
