ASUS NUC 16 PRO Intel Ultra x9 388H/ LPDDR5 32GB/ 1TB/ Win 11 Pro

ASUS NUC 16 Pro Intel Core Ultra X9 388H / LPDDR5x 32GB / 1TB SSD / Windows 11 Pro (RNUC16GDKX96C4N3) - 3 Years Onsite Local Warranty

The Top Processor in the NUC 16 Pro Range, 32GB Configuration

The ASUS NUC 16 PRO RNUC16GDKX96C4N3 is a complete Windows 11 Pro mini PC built on Intel's Core Ultra X-series platform: the Intel Core Ultra X9 Processor 388H, 32GB of LPDDR5x memory and a 1TB NVMe SSD are already fitted, so it is ready to sign in as soon as a monitor, keyboard and mouse are connected. For a Singapore business running CPU- or GPU-heavy work on a mini PC footprint, it is the performance configuration of the range at a lower cost than the 64GB sibling.

Intel Core Ultra X9 388H with Intel Arc B390 Graphics

The Core Ultra X9 388H runs at a configurable TDP of 65W in the NUC 16 Pro chassis and is paired with the Intel Arc B390 integrated GPU, which ASUS describes with 12 Xe cores, 128 vector engines and eight ray-tracing units. That is a substantial step up in graphics headroom over the Intel Graphics fitted to the Core Ultra 5 325 and Core Ultra 7 356H configurations in the same range. The X9 388H is the highest processor tier ASUS offers in the NUC 16 Pro complete systems, one step above the Core Ultra X7 358H.

32GB Soldered LPDDR5x - Faster, but Fixed

Memory is 32GB of LPDDR5x rated up to 9600 MT/s, soldered directly to the board rather than fitted as removable modules. High-bandwidth LPDDR5x matters to an integrated GPU like the Arc B390, which draws all of its bandwidth from system memory, but the capacity is set at the factory and cannot be upgraded later. If 32GB may not be enough headroom - for local AI models or heavy virtualisation - order the 64GB configuration (RNUC16GDKX96D4N3) instead, since a later upgrade is not possible.

1TB NVMe SSD and a Second M.2 Slot

Storage is a 1TB M.2 NVMe PCIe 4.0 SSD. The board provides two M.2 2280 NVMe slots - one PCIe Gen5 x4 and one PCIe Gen4 x4, each supporting drives from 128GB to 8TB - so capacity can be added later through the tool-less chassis. Ask SourceIT to fit a second drive before delivery if you prefer.

Dual Thunderbolt 4, Dual HDMI 2.1, Dual 2.5G LAN

Rear I/O includes two Thunderbolt 4 Type-C ports with DisplayPort 2.1, two HDMI 2.1 ports, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports and two RJ45 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ports (dual Intel I226-V). The front adds one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C and two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports. Wireless is Intel Wi-Fi 7 (BE211) with Bluetooth 6.0, and ASUS rates the system for up to four 4K displays. There is no analogue audio jack; audio is carried digitally over HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C.

Compact, Tool-less and Business-Ready

The chassis measures 144 x 117 x 42 mm and weighs 0.75 kg per ASUS, with a tool-less lever-action design for service access, a VESA bracket in the box for mounting behind a monitor, a Kensington lock slot and built-in firmware TPM 2.0. Every configuration in the NUC 16 Pro range shares the same external chassis, ports and VESA mounting, so mixed fleets need no different desk fit-out.

Supplied Locally, with GST Invoice and Singapore Onsite Warranty

SourceIT supplies the ASUS NUC 16 PRO RNUC16GDKX96C4N3 with a full GST invoice and local Singapore support. ASUS backs this unit with a 3-year onsite warranty, so a qualifying hardware fault is resolved at your premises rather than through a courier round trip.

Need more memory on the same processor? The RNUC16GDKX96D4N3 is the same Core Ultra X9 388H build with 64GB of LPDDR5x, and the RNUC16GDKX96C003 barebone offers this processor and 32GB memory without SSD or OS.
