Barebone kit with Core 3 100U

This barebone mini PC ships as a new Intel NUC14RVKi3 chassis containing a soldered Core 3 100U processor with six cores and eight threads. It arrives without memory, storage or an operating system so the builder chooses DDR5-5600 SO-DIMMs and up to two NVMe SSDs. The 90 W power adapter and VESA mount are included.

Who should build on this platform

It suits integrators and enthusiasts who want a compact 117 x 112 x 37 mm system for office, signage or light development workloads and who are comfortable adding their own RAM, SSD and OS. Buyers who need a complete plug-and-play unit with Windows pre-installed should look at a fully configured mini PC instead.

Two SO-DIMM slots up to 96 GB

The board provides two DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM sockets supporting a maximum of 96 GB in dual-channel mode, so the memory capacity you install decides whether the system meets your workload requirements.

Questions about this item

Does the barebone ship with any RAM or storage, or do I need to buy DDR5 5600 SO-DIMMs and M.2 NVMe drives separately?

The unit arrives with no memory and no storage installed. You must add up to 96 GB of DDR5 5600 SO-DIMMs across the two slots and one M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4x4 NVMe plus one M.2 2242 PCIe x4 NVMe SSD.

How do I decide between the two M.2 slots — one 2280 and one 2242 — for my NVMe drives?

The 2280 slot supports full-length PCIe Gen4x4 NVMe drives for primary storage, while the 2242 slot takes shorter PCIe x4 NVMe modules, useful for a secondary drive or caching.

What does the Core 3 100U's 4.70 GHz boost mean for everyday workloads in this 117 x 112 x 37 mm chassis?

The 6-core, 8-thread processor can reach 4.70 GHz on bursty tasks such as web browsing, office apps and light content creation, while the 90 W adapter and compact chassis keep thermals in check for sustained loads.
