Intel Core i3-8121U barebone kit

This Intel NUC8i3CYS barebone mini PC arrives new and houses a Core i3-8121U processor running at 3.2 GHz alongside AMD Radeon 540 graphics with 2 GB GDDR5 memory. It uses LPDDR4-2400MHz system memory and fits the UCFF form factor. The compact chassis measures 2.00 inches high by 4.60 inches wide by 4.40 inches deep.

Home-office and light-media users

The kit suits buyers who need a small desktop for web browsing, office applications and 1080p video playback with wired 10/100/1000Mbps LAN, Intel Wireless-AC 9560 Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0. It does not meet the needs of users who require user-replaceable memory modules, additional discrete graphics performance or multiple high-speed storage bays.

Bundled power supply and wireless

The included 208-230 V AC power supply delivers the specific voltage range the board requires, while the pre-installed Intel Wireless-AC 9560 module provides dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0 without a separate antenna kit. These integrated parts remove the need to source a compatible PSU or wireless card separately.

Questions about this item

What memory do I need to add for the i3-8121U to boot?

The kit uses LPDDR4-2400MHz memory; no SO-DIMM slots are present, so memory must be sourced as a compatible LPDDR4 module.

Will my Gigabit switch and Bluetooth 5.0 peripherals work with the built-in LAN and radio?

Yes, the 10/100/1000Mbps LAN port and Intel Wireless-AC 9560 with Bluetooth 5.0 are compatible with those standards.

How can I confirm the Radeon 540 2 GB GDDR5 is active after assembly?

In Device Manager the adapter appears as AMD Radeon 540 with 2 GB dedicated GDDR5, and GPU-Z shows the same VRAM amount.
