Compact Business Mini-PC

The ASUS NUC13ANKi5 is a 4x4 barebone system built around a 13th Gen Intel Core i5-1340P processor with 12 cores and 16 threads. It ships with 16GB of DDR4-3200 memory and a 512GB SSD installed. The platform targets commercial deployments that need vPro manageability, dual 4K display output, and 2.5GbE networking in a silent chassis.

Straightforward Memory and Storage Access

The case opens without tools to reveal two 262-pin SO-DIMM slots and two M.2 sockets. The 2242 key-B slot accepts SATA or PCIe x1 Gen 3 drives, while the 2280 key-M slot supports PCIe x4 Gen 4 NVMe. Factory-installed modules occupy one SO-DIMM and the 2242 slot, so builders must plan which slot to populate first.

Thunderbolt 4 and Display Limits

Two Thunderbolt 4 ports carry DisplayPort 1.4a and USB4 traffic, but the HDMI 2.1 ports operate in TMDS mode limited to 4K at 60Hz. The i226V Ethernet controller negotiates up to 2.5Gbps on the single RJ45 jack. Wireless clients connect via Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3, while legacy peripherals use the rear USB 3.2 Gen 2 and USB 2.0 Type-A ports.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the Intel Core i5-1340P is running at its 4.5 GHz turbo speed after setup?

Open Task Manager or a monitoring tool such as HWMonitor and watch the core clocks under load; the processor has 12 cores and a 35 W TDP, so sustained turbo will depend on thermal headroom.

The box lists 16 GB DDR4-3200 and a 512 GB SSD — what extra parts must I buy?

Nothing is required to start; the barebone ships with memory and storage installed. You may later add a second SO-DIMM up to 64 GB total or a 2280 NVMe drive in the M.2 key-M slot.

Should I choose the 16 GB / 512 GB version or plan to upgrade to 64 GB and a larger NVMe drive?

The 16 GB / 512 GB configuration handles typical office workloads. Select the higher capacity now if you run virtual machines, large datasets, or want headroom without opening the chassis.
