Unlocking Value with Modular Computing
NUC Elements are an entirely new way to design and build integrated solutions and Mini PCs. NUC Compute Elements, along with NUC Board and Chassis Elements, deliver the flexibility of modular computing, so you can create the exact systems your customers want.

Modular Computing Made Easy
NUC Compute Elements combine Intel® processors with motherboard, Wi-Fi, Thunderbolt™ technology, I/O, memory, and M.2 slots into one compact solution to help you quickly create the exact systems your customers want.
NUC Compute Elements include a wide range of Intel processors. Find the right processor for your needs from powerful, 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i9 processors to value Celeron® options. Need to change? Upgrading is easy with modular NUC elements.
With minimal R&D time, you can build an integrated system for digital signage, a rugged solution for harsh environments, or a space-saving collaboration solution with nearly endless I/O options. By transforming how solutions can be designed and built, we revolutionized computing to drive business success.
Ready to build
A rich array of I/O options and customizable memory and storage make NUC Elements a powerful platform for integrators.
Thunderbolt™ technologies
A single Thunderbolt™ port enables high-speed data transfer, video output, and power delivery to compatible devices over one cable.
Wired connections
NUC Board Elements feature USB 3.2 and 2.0, HDMI, Ethernet, and PCIe. Expand further with additional headers, expandable bays, and options with dual LAN and multi-HDMI ports.
Memory and storage
Support for up to 3 M.2 SSDs and 64GB memory.
Wireless connections
Leverage latest gen Intel® Wi-Fi 6 and 6E and up to Bluetooth 5.2 for fast wireless communications.
