Everyday AI (10+ TOPS NPU):
As AI capabilities advance from cloud platforms to integrated accelerations in your essential PC apps, having a powerful, cutting-edge mini PC is more crucial than ever. ASUS delivers with the NUC 14 Pro and NUC 14 Pro+, each offering over 10 TOPS (Teraflops Operations Per Second) of NPU performance and up to an Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 CPU. The NUC 14 Pro enhances workflows with its CPU, NPU, and Arc GPU, all housed in a sub-0.5-liter toolless chassis. The NUC 14 Pro+ stands out in generative AI workloads with energy-efficient WiFi Sensing and a sleek 5" x 4" anodized aluminum chassis.
Next Level AI (40+ TOPS NPU):
TOPS (Teraflops Operations Per Second) measures how many trillions of operations an AI PC can perform each second under ideal conditions. Next-level AI NUC CPUs can reach triple-digit TOPS in performance. ASUS launched the NUC 14 Pro AI Mini PC in September 2024. Powered by the Intel® Core™ Ultra processor (Series 2, formerly codenamed Lunar Lake) and housed in a sleek <0.6L form factor, this model pushes the boundaries of compact computing with its advanced AI capabilities.
Advanced AI (NPU+RTX 40-series GPU):
Advanced AI tasks require significant graphical processing power, making a discrete GPU crucial for accelerated image processing. Leading the AI Mini PC market, the ROG NUC and NUC 14 Performance feature up to an Intel® Core™ Ultra 9 CPU and an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4070 GPU. The ROG NUC, with its compact 2.5L form factor, excels in handling both demanding AI workloads and AAA gaming. The NUC 14 Performance, on the other hand, is perfect for commercial and edge applications, supporting up to five simultaneous 4K displays for high-vision computing and versatile commercial use.
