ASUS announced it was picking up the NUC mantle after Intel decided to exit the business and subsequently went on to launch a business NUC as well as teasing us with a preview of an ROG gaming NUC.
And now, it is clear to see that ASUS chose to double-down on NUC’s and deliver what it teased in the form of the ROG NUC gaming PC.
Available in two versions, the 2.5-litre ROG NUC PC measures 180 x 270 x 50 mm (including vertical mount stand) is powered by up to an Intel Core Ultra 9, NVIDIA RTX 4070 with 8GB of VRAM, 64GB of RAM, and 1TB of storage (full specs breakdown below).

Available now, the ROG NUC 760 and ROG NUC 970 are priced at S$2,539 and S$3,139 respectively from the ASUS online store and the Challenger online store.
