ASUS NUC 13 Pro RNUC13ANHi5000U Core i5-1340P barebone mini PC

Business-ready barebone

The ASUS NUC 13 Pro RNUC13ANHi5000U is a tall mini PC barebone built around an Intel Core i5-1340P processor with 12 MB cache and peak clocks of 4.60 GHz on performance cores and 3.40 GHz on efficient cores. It targets businesses and integrators who want a compact, vPro-capable platform they can finish with their own memory, storage and operating system.

Upgrade from older NUC kits

This kit replaces earlier 4x4 barebones by adding 13th Gen Intel Core architecture, dual-channel DDR4-3200 SO-DIMM slots supporting up to 64 GB at 1.2 V, and three internal drive bays: one M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4x4 slot, one M.2 2242 PCIe Gen3 slot and one SATA 6.0 Gb/s connector. The jump is worthwhile when you need Thunderbolt 4, Wi-Fi 6E AX211 and 2.5 Gbps Ethernet in the same small footprint.

Sustained workload behaviour

The tall chassis provides extra internal volume for airflow, helping the i5-1340P maintain higher clocks during extended compile, render or virtualisation sessions. Dual HDMI 2.1 and dual DisplayPort 1.4a over USB-C drive up to four displays continuously, while Intel Iris Xe graphics handle hardware-accelerated encode and decode without throttling the CPU package.
