The SimplyNUC Jean Canyon follows a Micro-ATX form factor and occupies a total volume of 2953.104 cm³, with physical dimensions of 282 mm in height, 187 mm in thickness, and 56 mm in width. Storage is handled by an 8000GB NVMe SSD, delivering fast flash-based access across a substantial capacity for data-intensive tasks and large workloads.
The CPU operates with a hybrid core layout of 8 cores at 2.7 GHz and 16 cores at 2.1 GHz, totaling 24 threads, and can reach a turbo clock speed of 5.4 GHz via Turbo Boost version 2. It carries a 36 MB L3 cache and 40 MB L2 cache, features an unlocked clock multiplier set at 27, and supports 64-bit processing. The processor does not use multithreading, has a thermal design power of 50W, and is rated for a maximum operating temperature of 105 °C. Integrated graphics are also present on the chip.
The graphics card is built on a 4 nm semiconductor process and delivers 23.22 TFLOPS of floating-point performance, backed by 4608 shading units, 144 texture mapping units, and 48 render output units, producing a texture rate of 362.9 GTexels/s and a pixel rate of 121 GPixel/s. It carries 8GB of VRAM with an effective memory speed of 25400 MHz, a memory bus width of 128-bit, and a maximum memory bandwidth of 405.8 GB/s, while the GPU itself runs at a base clock of 2235 MHz and boosts up to 2520 MHz. The card supports ray tracing, DLSS, double precision floating point, and multi-display output across up to 4 displays, with API compatibility covering DirectX 12 Ultimate, OpenGL 4.6, and OpenCL 3. It connects via PCIe 5 and does not include LHR.
The system is equipped with 96GB of DDR5 RAM running at a speed of 6400 MHz, providing a substantial memory pool well-suited to memory-intensive workloads and multitasking scenarios.
Wireless connectivity covers Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) alongside Wi-Fi 6E, 6, 5, and 4, complemented by Bluetooth 5.4. On the wired side, there are six USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, one USB 4 40Gbps port, and one Thunderbolt 4 port, while older USB 2.0, USB 3.2 Gen 1, and USB-C Gen 2 ports are absent. Display output is handled by two HDMI 2.1 ports and two DisplayPort outputs, and a single RJ45 port provides wired networking. A 3.5 mm audio jack is also present, whereas a VGA connector and S/PDIF output are not included.
In CPU benchmarks, the system scores 56136 in PassMark multi-threaded and 4744 in the single-threaded PassMark test, while Geekbench 6 returns 17916 multi-core and 2840 single-core. Graphics performance is reflected in a PassMark G3D score of 19987.
The CPU is a laptop-type processor using a BGA 2114 socket and employs big.LITTLE technology for its hybrid core arrangement, supporting instruction sets including MMX, F16C, FMA3, AES, AVX, AVX2, SSE 4.1, and SSE 4.2, along with an NX bit for hardware-level security. Memory support tops out at 96GB across 2 channels at a maximum speed of 6400 MHz, with ECC memory support included, though there is no external memory slot and flash storage is not used. The Blackwell GPU architecture is paired with GDDR7 memory and benefits from Intel Resizable BAR, while stereoscopic 3D is supported; XeSS (XMX) is not present on this configuration.
