Intel NUC 13 barebone with Core i7-13700K

This compact barebone PC arrives with an Intel Core i7-13700K processor installed, delivering 8 performance cores and 8 efficient cores for 24 threads. It targets enthusiasts who want a small-form-factor foundation for a high-performance desktop build. The Z690 platform provides PCIe x16 Gen5 support for a triple-slot graphics card up to 313mm long. Memory, storage and operating system must be supplied by the builder.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Builders seeking a powerful, space-saving system with dual-channel DDR5-4800 SODIMM support up to 64GB, three M.2 slots for NVMe or SATA SSDs, 10Gb and 2.5Gb LAN, Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 will find the connectivity they need. It is not for buyers who require memory or storage pre-installed, who need a smaller chassis that cannot accept a 63mm thick triple-slot GPU, or who want a fully assembled PC with an operating system ready to run.

The deciding specification

The chassis accepts a discrete graphics card up to 313mm long, 155mm tall and 63mm thick with a backplate no thicker than 3.5mm, making GPU physical dimensions the single constraint that determines whether a chosen card will fit.

Questions about this item

Should I pick a 512 GB or 4 TB NVMe drive for the primary M.2 slot?

The primary M.2 2280 slot supports NVMe Gen4 drives from 512 GB to 4 TB; choose capacity based on your storage budget and how many large applications or games you plan to keep installed.

What does the 5.4 GHz boost clock on the Core i7-13700K mean for daily workloads?

The 5.4 GHz maximum turbo on the performance cores delivers strong single-thread responsiveness for gaming and bursty productivity tasks, while the 8 efficient cores handle background work at up to 4.2 GHz.

How does the PCIe x16 Gen5 slot limit the graphics card I can install?

The slot accepts triple-slot cards up to 313 mm long, 63 mm thick and 155 mm tall with a backplate no thicker than 3.5 mm; the Gen5 link runs at full speed with compatible GPUs.
