Intel has unveiled its most powerful NUCs to date.
The new NUCs are based on Intel’s 8th-gen Core processors and feature AMD graphics processing via Radeon RX Vega M systems.
“The new Intel NUC brings this powerful new processor and graphics solution into an incredibly tiny 1.20-litre system,” said Intel.
The tiny PCs are aimed at high-end media users and creators, and VR enthusiasts.
Two versions of the new NUC will be available: the NUC8i7HVK and the NUC8i7HNK, which feature different CPU and graphics offerings.
Both models sport Thunderbolt 3 ports, dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, and can drive six independent monitors simultaneously.
“These NUCs will be sold as bare-bones kits, targeted to DIYers who are looking for small, sleek, and powerful mini PCs,” said Intel.
