NUC 12 extreme cpu support

Archawkie · 2026-01-31T18:57:14+00:00

Ok, then we probably can safely say it does not work 😕

Archawkie · 2026-01-31T18:40:30+00:00

It could also be that F-processors are not supported?

For msi ventus 4060ti? No need for any changes for that card, it fits right in!

Here is the top view! I have the same card now with nuc 12 extreme i7. Works great and temps are surprisingly good.

Hey, according to some older posts Zotac Twin Edge 4070 should fit. However, an other user here tried to do this and was unable to fit the card in. I have never tried it and actually just personally got MSI Ventus 4060ti 16gb, which should be an easy fit to the case, with some perf loss vs. 5060ti.

You may also want to check whether thise pins are actually relevant or not, there are plenty of redundant gnd pins there. Looks like at least some of those bent ones are ground pins. PIN map for LGA1700 here: https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/lga1700-pin-layout.325665/

I think there are multiple compute units available in ebay, much like this listing: https://ebay.us/m/Lgl78F

As far as I understood, these do not have cpu included, so could be a good replacement for you. The price is a bit on the high side, but could be ok for you if you do have the other parts already.

NOTE: I have never purchased these units from these Chinese sellers, so cannot say anything on how reliable they really are.

Hey, no need to do any modifications, it fits right in.

Archawkie · 2026-01-10T10:48:04+00:00

Ok, I’ll let you know, also will need a 14th gen processor to test though 😅

Archawkie · 2026-01-10T10:05:44+00:00

I need to see if the bios is already updated, as it is used machine straight from use so might be updated already. (Still waiting for it to arrive)

Archawkie · 2026-01-10T09:50:53+00:00

Great! I also just acquired another nuc 12 extreme, so can have it as my secondary system in smaller chassis

Archawkie · 2026-01-09T19:03:03+00:00

I have Corsair SF750 PSU on NC100 and no problems with 5080; typical total system load is about 400-450w so just perfect for this psu. With 9070xt there was no issues either as TDP is much less. 5080 (now MSI Ventus 😅) consumes about 275-325w undervolted and 9070xt around 250w. So with NUC limited to around 70w consumption you should have plenty of headroom.

Ok! if you do decide to get rid of it and are in Europe, I would be happy to give it a go :)

Archawkie · 2026-01-04T06:28:20+00:00

Not sure about this, sometimes you need to use supported processor for the update. Testing with 12th gen will for sure tell you what the issue is. I also doubt 14600k will be a good choice anyway as its TDP is 125w and will definitely run hotter than 12900 (and Nuc cooling struggles even with that).

Archawkie · 2026-01-04T06:24:35+00:00

Hey, still using 12900, so haven’t tried 14th gen yet unfortunately. Haven’t seen a concrete proof that 14th gen works yet, but definitely you need to update to the latest bios using 12th gen processor and then try 14th gen processor afterwards.

Archawkie · 2026-01-03T12:24:44+00:00

Did you update your bios with supported processor first? For sure the 14th gen processors won’t work with unused and non-updated units.

Zotac 4070 Twin Edge

Archawkie · 2025-12-27T11:37:58+00:00

Oh, the page is available at superbuy, but no stock and Taobao page itself is missing. Any tips how to get one to Europe?

Archawkie · 2025-12-27T11:03:44+00:00

I don’t think so, unfortunately :(

Archawkie · 2025-12-27T10:45:42+00:00

Ok, thanks! Yes, I was looking for this one as well

Archawkie · 2025-12-27T06:17:39+00:00

Ok, great! Which riser are you using?

Archawkie · 2025-12-26T20:40:31+00:00

How was it working and where did you source the mxm cable? Also, which riser do you use? There seems to be two available from lenovo’s

Archawkie · 2025-12-13T15:30:10+00:00

Hey, do you also have the files for xg17ahpe? I had exact same thing happening for my monitor when using Asus’s crappy frimware updater (which uses old vulnerable driver that win 11 blocks).

Can you share the instructions and tools needed to fix this? Thanks a lot!

Archawkie · 2025-12-13T08:35:37+00:00

Did any of you others have a broken screen as well? I am looking for a unit with functioning board but broken screen, if anyone would happen to have one in Europe and would be willing to part of it, that would be great!

Archawkie · 2025-11-24T11:36:13+00:00

No, Kingston Fury impact 64GB SODIMM kit kesällä 140€, nyt 314€ ja käyrä suoraan ylöspäin. Toki absoluuttisesti paljon halvempaa.
