Compact Barebone for Business

The MSI Cubi NUC 1M-011BUS is a mini PC barebone built around an Intel Core 3 100U processor. It arrives with no memory or storage installed, letting you choose DDR5 SO-DIMM modules and M.2 or 2.5-inch drives. The 0.826-litre black chassis uses 42.9% post-consumer recycled plastic and supports VESA mounting behind a monitor.

DDR5 SO-DIMM Capacity Decides Fit

Two 262-pin SO-DIMM slots accept DDR5 5200 memory up to 64 GB total. If your workload needs more than 64 GB of RAM, this platform cannot accommodate it. Integrated graphics run as Intel UHD with single-channel memory or Intel Iris Xe when dual-channel memory is populated.

Suits IT Teams Building Custom Units

This barebone suits integrators and IT departments that want to specify their own memory and storage for managed deployments. Thunderbolt 4, dual 2.5G LAN, Wi-Fi 6E and quadruple display support cover modern office connectivity. Buyers who need a ready-to-run system with an operating system, memory and storage pre-installed should look at a fully configured mini PC instead.

Questions about this item

How does the Intel Core 3 100U processor perform once installed in this barebone?

The CPU handles everyday business workloads, web browsing and multimedia streaming within the compact chassis, with Intel UHD graphics when single-channel memory is used and Iris Xe graphics when dual-channel DDR5 is populated.

What does the Thunderbolt 4 port actually cap at for data and video?

The port delivers up to 40 Gbps bandwidth and can drive one of the four supported displays, while also carrying PCIe and USB traffic through the same connector.

What physical mounting does the chassis need and what clearance is required?

The unit includes a VESA bracket for standard monitor-back patterns and fits in an 0.826-litre case that only needs the DC power jack and space for the two 2.5 GbE ports, USB connectors and dual M.2 slots.
