Intel's Apollo Lake based NUC mini PC specs leaked

Intel is working on a new NUC mini desktop PC with Apollo Lake processor, according to leaked documents. The processor used in this system is the 10 watt Intel Celeron J3455 and there will be two models: one equipped with RAM, storage and OS, and the other is a barebones system.

The NUC NUC6CAYS model will pack 2GB RAM, 32GB eMMC storage and comes with Windows 10 pre-installed, while the barebones system (NUC6CAYH) will have no RAM, storage and operating system. The barebones model will support up to 8GB DDR3L RAM.

Both models will also have 2.5-inch drive bay for HDD or SDD. Although the NUC6CAYS model comes with 32GB storage, users will still have to invest in additional storage, since most of the 32GB space will be consumed by Windows 10.

Other features include 4 x USB 3.0 ports, SDXC card reader, HDMI 2.0 port, VGA port, Gigabit Ethernet, mini TOSLINK jack for 5.1 channel or 7.1 channel audio, 3.5mm audio jack and M.2 2230 card with WiFi 802.11ac and Bluetooth 4.2. The whole system measures 4" x 4" and also includes a thermal solution that is mounted on top.

The NUC mini PC will also be capable of handling 4K content at 60fps when connected to 4K display via HDMI, and a 1,920 x 1,200 resolution at 60Hz through the VGA port.

Currently it is unknown when Intel Apollo Lake based NUC will be unveiled.
