MSI Cubi NUC AI+ 3MG review: Mini PC with up to an insane 128 GB of RAM

Smaller, faster, and more efficient than before.

The newest MSI mini PC cuts down on size and weight without cutting down on too many important features. There are nonetheless a few compromises and limitations worth mentioning.

Verdict — Newly Optimized For Offices And Retail

It may not look like so at first glance, but the Cubi NUC AI+ 3MG is a significant leap forward over last year's Cubi NUC AI+ 2MG. There are many changes under the hood including a revised motherboard with removable RAM, an even easier servicing procedure, more useful ports, and a much smaller, inconspicuous design to better blend into more professional environments. In fact, this is one of the smallest Intel mini PCs supporting up to 128 GB of removable memory. The significant CPU performance boost also addresses one of the main concerns about the older Lunar Lake model.

Conversely, the smaller size entails certain compromises. The MicroSD reader from last year's model is now gone and there is no integrated speaker which would have made the system more versatile. Core temperatures are generally warmer and fan noise isn't necessarily better or worse than before. The relatively large power brick, which is almost as heavy as the mini PC itself, can be difficult to tuck away depending on the environment. And finally, while the high RAM capacity is a standout feature, other aspects have taken a backseat including Local storage and GPU performance as competing models like the GMK EVO-X1 or Asus NUC 15 Pro+ are each faster machines with more storage options.

Pros

+ removable SODIMM RAM up to 128 GB
+ three-year warranty standard
+ more HDMI and USB-C ports
+ smaller and lighter design
+ tool-less servicing

Cons

- fewer USB-A ports; dropped SD card reader and 3.5 mm audio jack
- below-average Core Ultra 9 CPU performance
- no secondary SSD support or speakers
- higher core temperatures than before
- no Panther Lake X7 options

Price and Availability

Newegg is currently shipping the barebones MSI Cubi NUC AI+ 3MG with Core Ultra 9 CPU for $830. If configured with 32 GB of RAM, the price jumps up to $1220.

The Cubi NUC AI+ 3MG succeeds last year's Cubi NUC AI+ 2MG by swapping out the Intel Lunar Lake CPU for newer Panther Lake options. The external design has changed as well to be noticeably smaller and lighter than before.

Our test unit is a higher-end configuration with the Core Ultra 9 386H CPU for approximately $1100 if configured with RAM and storage. Thankfully, barebones options are available at lower starting prices. SKUs with entry-level Core Ultra 5 and Core Ultra 7 are also available.

The Cubi NUC AI+ 3MG competes with other business-centric and retail/office mini PCs like the GMK EVO series, Asus NUC 15 Pro+, or the HP EliteBoard G1a AI.

Case

The chassis utilizes the same black plastic materials for similar impressions as before albeit in a 17 percent lighter and 43 percent smaller volume. Perhaps more impressively, the smaller design doesn't entail more ventilation grilles or any major external revisions.

Connectivity

The most notable connectivity feature of the Cubi 3MG is its External Power Switch Pin on the side of the unit. The port allows for a cabled Power button to easily turn on or shut off the system should the mini PC be placed somewhere hard to reach like under an office desk or behind a table or monitor.

Port options have been significantly revised when compared to last year's model. There are now fewer USB-A ports and no more SD card reader or audio jack in favor of more HDMI ports and USB-C ports.

Keep in mind that only one of two Thunderbolt 4 ports supports Power Delivery. This port can be used to power the mini PC should you have a compatible USB-C AC adapter in lieu of the included barrel AC adapter.

The retail box includes the external power switch for connecting to the power switch pin mentioned above. The external switch is not very long at just ~47 cm, however.

Performance

Testing Conditions

We set MSI Center to Performance mode prior to running the benchmarks below.

Processor

The Cubi AI 3MG ships with the same Core Ultra 9 386H CPU as found on the latest Razer Blade 16. However, raw multi-thread performance is about 18 percent slower on the MSI due to limited Turbo Boost potential. When running CineBench R15 xT in a loop, for example, the initial score of 2792 points would drop to 2380 points after just a couple of rounds as shown by our comparison graph below.

Raw performance is nevertheless much faster than last year's Cubi AI+ 2MG by 50 to 60 percent even after accounting for any throttling.

GPU Performance

The integrated Graphics 4 Xe3 performs most similarly to last year's Arc 140V if not slightly faster by a few percentage points on average. The Core Ultra 9 386H does not feature the elite Arc B390 of the Panther Lake X7 series and so graphics performance is not a primary feature of the MSI Cubi.

Emissions

System Noise

The internal fan is always active no matter the onscreen load much like what we observed on older Cubi models. It's quiet enough with no major throttling issues to be unnoticeable in an office or retail setting, but it can ramp up to the mid 40 dB(A) range when running more demanding loads for extended periods to be as loud as some gaming laptops.

Temperature

AC adapter reaches over 35 C when running demanding loads
AC adapter reaches over 35 C when running demanding loads

Surface temperatures are relatively cool partly due to the plastic chassis and efficient CPU. The rear becomes slightly warmer than the front as to be expected. 

Ventilation grilles are kept to a minimum unlike on some alternatives like the GMK EVO series.

Stress Test

The CPU would boost to 3 GHz, 61 W, and 92 C when initiating Prime95 stress. After 20 seconds, however, it would dip down to just 2.1 GHz and 30 W in order to maintain a core temperature of 88 C. The limited Turbo Boost potential supports our power consumption and CineBench R15 observations.

Core temperature would stabilize at 80 C when running Cyberpunk 2077 compared to only 63 C on last year's NUC 2MG.

Energy Management

Power Consumption

The Cubi AI+ 3MG is noticeably more efficient than last year's Cubi AI+ 2MG especially in terms of performance-per-watt. When running Prime95, for example, consumption would stabilize at around 52 W compared to 49 W on the older model despite the massive 60 to 65 percent increase in multi-thread performance. Graphics performance-per-watt has increased as well albeit by a much smaller degree.

Note that consumption can temporarily spike to as high as 98 W before falling back down due to CPU Turbo Boost limitations. The 120 W AC adapter (~13 x 6.9 x 2.5 cm) is more than sufficient in this regard as the mini PC itself barely averages more than 50 W to 60 W when under load.

Notebookcheck Rating

The MSI Cubi NUC AI+ 3MG is one of the smallest mini PCs you can find with a Panther Lake Core Ultra 9 CPU. However, a couple of missing features prevent it from being the ultimate retail or office solution.
