MSI has announced the Cubi NUC TWG Series, a new compact mini‑PC range powered by Intel’s N Series processors and housed in an ultra-compact 0.55‑litre chassis.
The Cubi NUC TWG supports up to three displays, including output over USB‑C, and includes dual‑LAN connectivity with 2.5G and 1G ports. MSI’s cable organiser is included to prevent accidental disconnections, and the system supports MSI Power Link so compatible MSI monitors can power the PC on or off directly. The mini‑PC is VESA‑mountable, and a fanless Cubi NUC TWG S variant is available for silent operation.
