Last month, ASUS showed its new mini-PC in China. Now, we’ve learned at Computex 2026 that there’s a global launch planned for the ROG NUC 16.

The ROG NUC 16 will feature a configuration with either an RTX 5070 Ti or an RTX 5080. The Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus processor is included in both versions and will deliver 5% more performance compared to the Core Ultra 9 275HX in the ROG NUC (2025). Only models with 16 GB of DDR5-5600 or DDR5-6400 RAM will be sold, despite compatibility with up to 64 GB of RAM.

Otherwise, the mini-PC will come with 1 TB or 2 TB of PCIe Gen 4 storage. In the United States, it will be priced at $3,799 with an RTX 5080 Laptop GPU.
