Compact barebone with Core i5-9300H
This Intel NUC barebone system ships with a 9th Generation Intel Core i5-9300H processor installed and the Mobile Intel CM246 chipset. It is built for users who want a small-form-factor foundation for virtual reality, gaming or content creation workloads. No memory or storage is included, so the builder supplies DDR4 2666 SO-DIMMs and NVMe or SATA drives.
Suits DIY builders who provide their own parts
The kit targets enthusiasts comfortable installing up to 64 GB of dual-channel DDR4 across two 260-pin slots and populating three M.2 PCIe x4 slots plus three SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports. Buyers who need a ready-to-run PC with memory, storage and an operating system pre-installed should look at a fully configured system instead.
Single PCIe 3.0 x16 slot for discrete graphics
A full-length PCI Express 3.0 x16 expansion slot lets you add a dedicated graphics card, which is the deciding factor for gaming or VR performance. Onboard Intel UHD Graphics 630 handles basic display output through one HDMI port and dual Thunderbolt 3 connectors, but 3D workloads rely on the card you install.

Questions about this item
Should I choose DDR4 2666 modules for the two SO-DIMM slots?
Yes, the board supports DDR4 2666 in dual-channel mode with a maximum of 64 GB across the two 260-pin slots.
What does the Core i5-9300H boost to 4.10 GHz mean for daily workloads?
The processor can reach 4.10 GHz on a single core for short bursts, while sustained multi-core speeds will settle lower depending on cooling and power limits.
How fast can an NVMe drive run in the CPU-attached M.2 PCIe x4 Gen 3 slot?
That slot is limited to PCIe 3.0 x4, so NVMe drives will top out at the Gen 3 x4 ceiling of roughly 4 GB/s sequential throughput.
