MSI, a global leader in computing solutions, recently launched its latest innovation in mini PCs — the Cubi NUC AI Series.

The Cubi NUC AI Series brings AI processing and advanced multitasking performance into an ultra-compact format, designed for those who want efficiency, speed, and a sleek space-saving design.

The lineup offers two new models, the Cubi NUC AI+ 2MG and Cubi NUC AI 1UMG, each tailored to different user needs. Whether you’re looking to streamline productivity in an office environment, speed up creative workflows, or handle demanding computing tasks with ease, these compact systems pack a serious punch.

For creators, that means faster editing and content generation. For office professionals, it means easier multitasking and streamlined workflows. And for businesses, it means high performance and low power consumption in a device that doesn’t take up valuable space.

Both models also support the MSI Power Link via HDMI CEC Function, allowing users to conveniently power the system on or off directly through a connected MSI monitor. This eliminates pesky cable clutter and simplifies daily use for SMBs, educators, and remote professionals alike.

Here’s a closer look at the features of the Cubi NUC AI+ 2MG and the Cubi NUC AI 1UMG.

Cubi NUC AI+ 2MG

At just 0.826 liters in volume, the Cubi NUC AI+ 2MG is small in size but big on performance.

A dedicated Copilot button unlocks the power of AI assistance, streamlining workflows and simplifying everyday tasks with intuitive support, while a built-in microphone and speaker functionality enable seamless communication and voice-activated commands.

Powered by Edge AI and Small Language Models (SLMs), the system delivers responsive, intelligent processing locally — enhancing performance while safeguarding user privacy and data security.

For added peace of mind, a biometric fingerprint one-touch button offers a fast and secure way to log in, ensuring that only authorized users can access the device. Unlike traditional passwords, fingerprint authentication provides a more reliable and tamper-resistant layer of protection, making it ideal for environments where data integrity is critical.

Cubi NUC AI 1UMG

For those seeking a footprint that’s even more compact, the Cubi NUC AI 1UMG is for you — with a height of just 37.5 mm and a total volume of only 0.51 litres, it can blend seamlessly into any workspace.

Built for the future

Both models in the Cubi NUC AI Series have been built for the future — the result is a versatile solution that scales across industries and use cases.
