Skip to contentThe MSI Cubi NUC TWG is a small, low-power desktop computer that measures 135.6 x 112.6 x 40.1mm (5.34″ x 4.43″ x 1.58″), features dual Ethernet ports and support for up to three displays, and come with Intel N150 and Intel N250 Twin Lake processor options.MSI also offers a nearly identical model called the MSI Cubi NUC TWG S. The key difference? The TWG has a fan inside the case for active cooling, while the TWG S is fanless for silent operation.While MSI announced the new computers in a press release, they’re not yet listed on the company’s US website. But they are shown on the MSI UK website, where we can get a good look at the mini PCs and their spec sheets.Update: MSI announced on June 16, 2026 that prices will start at $249 for barebones models or $449 for fully configured systems with memory and storage. Powered by a 6-watt, quad-core Intel Twin Lake processor, both models have a single SODIMM slot for DDR5-4800 memory and a single M.2 slot for PCIe 3.0 x4 storage. Wireless options include an AzureWave card with support for WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 5 or an Intel card with WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 support.Ports include:1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (10 Gbps)2 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A (10 Gbps)4 x USB 2.0 Type-A (480 Mbps)2 x HDMI 2.11 x 3.5mm audio1 x 2.5 GbE LAN1 x Gigabit LANWhile the USB 2.0 ports might be a little disappointing, it’s worth keeping in mind that this is a mini PC designed to be cost-effective and energy-efficient. It’s not an AI or graphics workstation. So I’d think of it as a system with three high-speed ports and four additional ports that can be used for things like storage, but are more likely to be useful for connecting peripherals like keyboards and mice that don’t necessarily benefit from higher speeds.It’s also compactible with VESA mounts, allowing you to mount the mini PC behind a monitor to create a pseudo-all-in-one PC or behind a TV or other big-screen display for a digital kiosk or digital signage system,This article was first published April 10, 2026 and most recently updated June 16, 2026.
