Compact Intel Core Ultra barebone

The ASUS NUC 15 PRO+ RNUC15CRSU50000U is a new barebone mini PC built around a 1.7 GHz Intel Core Ultra 5 225H processor with 14 cores. It targets system builders who want a small silver chassis that supports up to 96 GB of DDR5 memory and dual M.2 NVMe storage. Memory and storage are sold separately so the buyer chooses capacity and speed.

Aluminium chassis with front USB 3.2 Gen2x2

The 1.52 lb aluminium enclosure measures 5.67 by 4.41 by 1.65 inches and includes a VESA mount kit for behind-display installation. Front I/O provides one USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C port and two USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports for fast peripheral access. Rear connectivity adds two Thunderbolt 4 ports with DisplayPort 2.1, one USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A, one USB 2.0 Type-A, 2.5 Gbps Ethernet, Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4.

Upgrade from older NUC or desk tower

This unit replaces larger legacy mini PCs or full-size towers when a builder needs modern DDR5 memory, PCIe 4.0 NVMe slots and 4K 60 Hz dual-display output over HDMI 2.1. The jump is worth it for workflows that benefit from Arc 130T integrated graphics, 2.5 Gbps wired networking and the latest wireless standards. Buyers who require pre-installed memory or storage should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

What PCIe generation does the M.2 2280 slot use, and what speed does that cap the NVMe drive at?

The M.2 2280 slot is PCIe Gen4x4, so an NVMe SSD is limited to Gen 4 transfer rates.

What are the exact dimensions and VESA mounting provision for this chassis?

The unit measures 5.67 x 4.41 x 1.65 inches and includes a VESA mount with screws in the box.

How do I install memory and storage, and which step is commonly missed?

Open the case, insert DDR5 SO-DIMMs into the two 262-pin slots and NVMe drives into the 2280 and 2242 slots, then remember to secure each M.2 drive with its retention screw.
