Ready-to-finish mini PC

The Intel NUC14RVKU7 is a slim barebone system built around the Core Ultra 7 155H processor with integrated Arc graphics and an on-board NPU. It targets builders who want a compact desktop for productivity, media playback or light AI-assisted workloads without assembling a full tower. The chassis measures 117 by 112 by 37 millimetres and includes VESA mounting hardware for behind-display installation.

Check memory and storage before ordering

The unit ships with no memory and no storage installed, so you must supply up to 96 GB of DDR5 5600 SO-DIMM modules across two slots. For storage, the board offers one M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe slot and one M.2 2242 PCIe x4 NVMe slot. Verify that your chosen drives match these key lengths and protocols before purchase. A 120 W 19 V power adapter with US cord is included and the chassis accepts 12 V to 20 V DC input.

Connectivity and expansion in a small footprint

Dual HDMI 2.1 ports and two Thunderbolt 4 Type-C connectors drive up to four displays, while a 2.5 Gb Ethernet port and Wi-Fi 6E AX211 with Bluetooth 5.3 handle networking. Front and rear USB include one 20 Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C, three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A and one USB 2.0 Type-A. The slim form factor leaves no room for internal expansion cards, so all I/O growth relies on the provided Thunderbolt and USB interfaces.

Questions about this item

Does the NUC14RVKU7 ship with RAM or an SSD installed, or do I need to buy them separately?

This is a barebone unit — no memory and no storage are installed. You must add up to 96 GB of DDR5-5600 SO-DIMMs (two slots) and at least one M.2 NVMe drive (2280 or 2242) before it will boot.

The spec sheet shows two M.2 slots — 2280 and 2242 — which one should I use for the main OS drive?

Use the 2280 slot for your primary NVMe SSD; it supports PCIe Gen4 x4 speeds. The 2242 slot is best kept for a second drive if you need extra capacity later.

The Core Ultra 7 155H lists a 4.80 GHz boost — what does that mean for everyday workloads once the NUC is assembled?

The 16-core, 22-thread CPU can hit 4.80 GHz on demanding threads, while the integrated Arc graphics and NPU handle AI-enhanced video calls and up to four displays via two HDMI 2.1 and two Thunderbolt 4 ports.
