ASUS NUC 15 Pro Barebone for Compact Builds

This ASUS NUC 15 Pro barebone mini PC arrives with an Intel Core Ultra 5 235H processor and integrated Intel Arc 140T graphics in a tall black chassis. It targets builders who want a small-footprint system for productivity or light creative work and who prefer to choose their own memory and storage. The platform supports Windows 11 Pro, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS x64 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux x64.

Check Memory Type and M.2 Sizes Before Ordering

The unit ships without RAM or drives. It provides two 262-pin SO-DIMM slots accepting DDR5-5600 or CSO-DIMM DDR5-6400 modules up to a total of 96 GB. Storage uses one M.2 2280 slot and one M.2 2242 slot, both PCIe Gen4x4 and PCIe Gen 5 ready. Verify your selected modules match these exact form factors and speeds.

Sustained Operation with 90 W Processor

The Core Ultra 5 235H runs at a 90 W base power level while the included 120 W power supply feeds the system. This headroom lets the CPU and Arc graphics maintain performance during extended workloads without hitting a strict power ceiling. Thermal design in the 4.61 by 4.41 by 2.13 inch enclosure manages heat over long sessions.
