BRENUC BREC barebone mini PC

The BRENUC BREC is a compact barebone mini PC built around an Intel Core Ultra 5 225H processor with 14 cores and a maximum turbo frequency of 4.9 GHz. It ships without memory or storage so integrators can populate the two 288-pin DDR5 5600 SODIMM slots and the M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe socket. A 120 W 19 V power adapter and VESA mount are included.

Suits builders who need four 4K displays

This unit targets system builders creating digital-signage players, multi-monitor workstations or compact AI-ready appliances that demand quad 4K@60 Hz output via two HDMI 2.1 and two full-function Type-C ports. It is not for buyers who want a complete system with RAM and SSD pre-installed, nor for those requiring a second 2.5 GbE port or additional USB 2.0 headers beyond the single 2.5 GbE RJ45 and four USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports provided.

Deciding spec: 128 GB DDR5 5600 dual-channel ceiling

The defining limit is the 128 GB maximum capacity across two DDR5 5600 SODIMM slots running in dual-channel mode. If your workload fits within that ceiling the platform delivers the memory bandwidth needed for the integrated Arc 130T graphics and AI acceleration; if you need more memory you must select a different barebone.

Questions about this item

How loud or hot does the 120W power adapter and Core Ultra 5 225H run during all-day workloads?

The 120W adapter (19V, 6.32A) powers the 14-core CPU and Arc 130T graphics; sustained loads will draw near this limit so expect active fan cooling and warm exhaust.

Which DDR5 SODIMMs do I need to buy separately to reach the 128GB maximum?

Two 288-pin DDR5 5600 SODIMMs fill the two slots for dual-channel operation up to the supported 128GB total.

Can I keep my existing 2.5GbE switch and Wi-Fi 6E router with this unit?

Yes — the 2.5Gbps RJ45 port and Intel Wi-Fi 6E AX211 with Bluetooth 5.3 connect directly to those standards.
