Just a few weeks after introducing the ROG NUC 16 mini gaming PC with an Intel Arrow Lake-HX processor and up to NVIDIA RTX 5080 graphics, Asus has unveiled an even higher-performance model.As part of the 20th anniversary of the ROG brand, Asus calls the new model the ROG NUC 16 Edition 20 and it features a semi-transparent chassis, much like the new Asus Xbox ROG Ally X20 that also debuted this week. But while the ROG Ally is a handheld gaming PC with integrated graphics, the ROG NUC 16 is console-sized mini PC with discrete graphics – in this case, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 mobile GPU with 24GB of GDDR7 memory.While the GPU is designed for laptops and won’t offer the same performance you’d get from a desktop version, Asus does give pack this little computer with a vapor chamber and three fans, which it says can dissipate up to 300 watts of heat, allowing the GPU to run at up to 175 watts while the system’s Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX processor uses up to 125 watts.For the most part, the computer’s other specs are pretty similar to those for the regular ROG NUC 16, except that the Edition 20 model has a black, red and gold color scheme (instead of black, gold, and white).Both systems ship with up to 64GB of DDR5-5600 SODIMM memory or DDR-6400 if you use CSO-DIMMs, and support up to 128GB if you can afford to bring your own. Both models have two M.2 2280 slots for storage (including one with PCIe 5.0 support and one that tops out at PCIe 4.0 speeds). And both have a set of ports that includes:1 x Thunderbolt 41 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C6 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A2 x HDMI 2.12 x DisplayPort 2.11 x 3.5mm audio1 x 2.5 GbE LAN (RTL8125D)1 x DC power inputThe system ships with a 380W power supply, a detachable base that lets you stand it up vertically, and also feature Intel Killer WiFi 7 BE1750 with support for Bluetooth 5.4. It ships with Windows 11 Home Edition pre-installed.The ROG NUC 16 and RUC NUC 16 Edition 20 both measure 282.4 x 189.5 x 56.5mm (11.1″ x 7.5″ x 2.2″).Asus hasn’t announced how much either model will cost yet.press release
