Cubi 5 12M: The energy efficient mini-PC

The MSI Cubi 5 12M is a small yet powerful mini-desktop with an incredibly compact 0.7L design suitable for commercial office work or as a home-theatre/entertainment PC, supporting UHD/4K 60Hz display output and triple-monitor setups.

The Cubi 5 12M i7 1255U BB is a barebone system equipped with an Intel 12th Gen Core i7-1255U processor but does not include the required DDR4 memory, storage, or software. It features Intel Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity.

The easy-to-upgrade SFF case can house both M.2 (with auto switch) and 2.5-inch SSD storage, as well as up to 64 GB of system memory (2 x DDR4 3200MHz SO-DIMMs), and is VESA-mountable for a cleaner desktop.

Thanks to its cooling-optimized layout and low-noise fan, the MSI Cubi 5 12M is not only an energy-efficient computing solution but is also very quiet, running at a whisper-level 28 dBA while in idle mode.

Front and rear I/O include dual Intel 2.5Gbps and 1Gbps ethernet LAN, Mic-in, headphones-out, Thunderbolt 4, and 4 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports.
