ASUS ROG NUC 14 Listed by Eurozone Retailer, High-end Configuration Costs €2499

Last October, Intel handed over its Next Unit of Computing (NUC) product lines—in an official capacity—to a new patron; ASUS. A couple of months later, the latter’s Republic of Gamers brand introduced a new NUC model—”Scorpion Canyon“—during their Transcendence Virtual Launch Live event at CES 2024. TPU staffers in attendance managed to spend some time with the ROG NUC, at the ASUS booth. A preview placard advertised that the best configuration could be powered by up an Intel Core Ultra 9 185H CPU and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile GPU. At the time, company representatives did not disclose any pricing information.

Finalized units are pre-orderable at one retailer, according to reports from Friday—Proshop’s listing reveals that customers in Denmark, Germany and Finland can purchase the top-end ASUS ROG NUC 14 configuration (RNUC14SRKU9189A2I) for €2499 (~$2724). NotebookCheck has discovered the existence of six different SKUs—on ASUS Spain’s official website. Despite the diverse list of (apparent) options, ROG: “only really offers Core Ultra 7 155H and GeForce RTX 4060, or (the aforementioned) Core Ultra 9 185H and GeForce RTX 4070 config (32 GB + 1 TB). While pricing for the former remains unknown, Propshop is selling the latter with 32 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage for €2,499 in the Eurozone…Currently, Proshop expects to begin shipping ROG NUC orders from April 10, signalling an April 2024 global launch.”
