Adaptable and customizable
NUC 15 Performance is a NUC Kit that can be customized for specific business applications. Because these models do not include a pre-installed operating system, RAM or SSD, users can create mini PCs tailored exactly to preferred specifications.
Each NUC 15 Performance includes a versatile stand that allows for vertical or horizontal placement. In addition, the chassis does not have a logo, allowing for placement of a custom business logo.
Multi-display support
NUC 15 Performance supports up to five displays via two HDMI® 2.1, two DisplayPort™ 2.1 and one Thunderbolt™ 4 Type-C with DisplayPort™ 2.1. Multi-display setups are ideal for AI developers, fintech professionals, lab techs or business elites.
Seamless connectivity
Built-in Intel Killer™ Wi-Fi 7 enables transfer speeds that are 2X faster than WiFi 6, while Bluetooth 5.4 ensures fast and stable connections. Users can experience ultrasmooth streaming, rapid data transfers, and uninterrupted collaborations for smooth and efficient workflows.
QuietFlow cooling design
Three built-in fans and a dual vapor chamber design ensure ultraquiet and efficient cooling. NUC 15 Performance dynamically adjusts fan speed based on real-time temperature and system workload, ensuring optimal cooling for any scenario. Chassis design has also been optimized for enhanced airflow and ventilation, keeping internal temperatures down and reducing the risk of overheating. This helps ensure stable performance, even after hours of use under heavy load. Additionally, the low-noise design of NUC 15 Performance enables users to focus on tasks like data analysis, video editing, or virtual meetings in relative silence.
