Create the Future. Intel® NUC 12 Enthusiast

Create and game with a mini PC featuring a 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 processor and Intel® Arc™ discrete graphics.

Massive performance, small size

Intel® NUC 12 Enthusiast Kits deliver performance with a 12th Gen Intel® Core™ processor paired with Intel® Arc™ discrete graphics. 

Built for the next generation of creativity 

Creators and gamers can unleash their imagination with immersive graphics, lightning-fast connectivity, and stream-ready performance-all in a slim PC that fits discreetly into any room.

Multi-core performance

12^th Gen Intel Core processors feature new performance hybrid architecture, a combination of powerful Performance-cores (P-cores) for demanding tasks and smaller Efficient-cores (E-cores) for background tasks. Intel® Thread Director assigns workloads to the right cores to optimize performance, like editing videos in the foreground with P-cores while E-cores efficiently import photos in the background.

Elevate your creativity

Unleash your imagination with Intel® Arc discrete graphics-the first graphics card supporting all current leading media formats, augmented by AI and accelerated by Intel® Deep Link technology.

AV1 codec-the future of video

Intel Arc GPUs are the world's first to offer hardware-accelerated encoding for AV1, the next-gen video codec. That's a game changer for creators who want to be ready for the next wave of rich media.

Accelerate workloads with Intel® Deep Link Technology

Intel® Deep Link technology accelerates compute-intensive tasks. With Hyper Encode, multiple media engines found on the 12th Gen Intel® Core™ processor and Intel® Arc™ graphics work in conjunction for fast media exports.

Upscale graphics with AI-enhanced XeSS 

Intel® Xe Super Sampling technology (XeSS) uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to upscale lower-resolution images like 1080p to look like 4K. The result? Immersive experiences with high-resolution, high-fidelity visuals at high refresh rates-without bogging down PC performance.

More thrills, mini size

Tuck these mini PCs wherever you want-under a monitor at the studio, in a cabinet, or in your hand on the way to a LAN party. Nobody will notice that the system is there, but they will notice what it can do-all the power of a tower at a fraction of the size. 

Fast, fun, fully loaded | Made to create

Creators can download, edit, and upload stream highlights in an instant with lightning-fast Intel® Killer™ Wi-Fi 6E AX1690i and two Thunderbolt™ 4 ports.

Media multitasking

Stream, edit, record, browse, and play at breakneck speeds, powered by the innovative performance hybrid architecture of 12th Gen Intel Core processors.
