The high performance fanless PC specialists have listed their NUC PCs with Akasa’s latest passive case. As spotted by the list by AtLast! fanless technology, solutions include systems built into Akasa Turing AC Pro and Maxwell AC Pro. Both cases house the internals of his NUC 13 Pro (with Intel i7-1360P and Iris Xe graphics) and are said to perform well under load.
Intel launched the NUC 13 Pro machine just a few weeks ago. The Raptor Lake-P powered machine was picked up for criticism in the following reviews. register Because it has annoyingly loud fans that “come to life… keep ringing constantly.” Akasa’s intervention is welcome, as noise pollution can have a significant impact on productivity.

This chassis features thicker heat pipes and a larger overall size of 218.5 x 206 x 80.3 mm (W x D x H), or 3.6 liters, but uses aluminum for the CPU block. This also comes with a thermal kit for M.2 SSD, but this time it is a model with fins. The maximum TDP of the processor used in this case is also said to be 40 watts.
Both passive fanless Akasa cased NUC 13 Pros retail for $1,070 and feature an Intel Core i7-1360P with Iris Xe graphics, 8 GB of DDR4-3200, and a 500 GB Samsung 980 PRO SSD It has been.These prices are over $300 more than the NUC 13 Pro barebones on sale. on Amazon (same processor but no RAM or storage).
