1.0 Introduction

This User Guide provides step-by-step installation instructions for these products:

  • Intel® NUC kit NUC9VXQNX
  • Intel® NUC kit NUC9V7QNX
  • Intel® NUC kit NUC9i9QNX
  • Intel® NUC kit NUC9i7QNX
  • Intel® NUC kit NUC9i5QNX

1.1 Before You Begin

The steps in this guide assume you’re familiar with computer terminology and with the safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using and modifying computer equipment. Disconnect the computer from its power source and from any network before performing any of the steps described in this guide. Failure to disconnect power, telecommunications links, or networks before you open the computer or perform any procedures can result in personal injury or equipment damage. Some circuitry on the board can continue to operate even though the front panel power button is off. Follow these guidelines before you begin:

  • Always follow the steps in each procedure in the correct order.
  • Create a log to record information about your computer, such as model, serial numbers, installed options, and configuration information.
  • Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. Perform the procedures described in this chapter only at an ESD workstation using an antistatic wrist strap and a conductive foam pad. If such a station isn’t available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the computer chassis.

1.2 Installation Precautions

When you install and test the Intel NUC, observe all warnings and cautions in the installation instructions. To avoid injury, be careful of:

  • Sharp pins on connectors
  • Sharp pins on circuit boards
  • Rough edges and sharp corners on the chassis
  • Hot components (such as SSDs, processors, voltage regulators, and heat sinks)
  • Damage to wires that could cause a short circuit Observe all warnings and cautions that instruct you to refer computer servicing to qualified technical personnel.

1.3 Observe Safety and Regulatory Requirements

If you don’t follow these instructions, you increase your safety risk and the possibility of noncompliance with regional laws and regulations.

3.0 System Memory

Intel® NUC kit NUC9VXQNX, NUC9V7QNX, NUC9i9QNX, NUC9i7QNX and NUC9i5QNX have two 260-pin DDR4 SO-DIMM sockets. Be sure to select memory modules that meet these requirements:

  • 1.2V low voltage memory o 1.35V via XMP support – NUC9i9QNX, NUC9i7QNX and NUC9i5QNX SKUs Only
  • 2666 MHz SO-DIMMs
  • Max capacity - 64GB
  • Non-ECC o ECC supported by the NUC9VXQNX only Find compatible memory modules in the Intel Product Compatibility Tool
  • NUC9VXQNX
  • NUC9V7QNX
  • NUC9i9QNX
  • NUC9i7QNX
  • NUC9i5QNX NOTE If you plan to install only one memory module, install it in the lower memory socket. To install memory, follow these steps: 1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 5. 2. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the computer. Turn off the computer and disconnect the power cord. 3. Remove the computer’s bottom chassis cover.

NUC9VXQNX, NUC9V7QNX, NUC9i9QNX, NUC9i7QNX, NUC9i5QNX User Guide – May 2020 4. Align the small space at the bottom edge of the memory module with the key in the socket. 5. Insert the bottom edge of the module at a 45-degree angle into the socket (A). 6. When the module is inserted, push down on the outer edge of module until the retaining clips snap into place (B). Make sure the clips are firmly in place (C).

NUC9VXQNX, NUC9V7QNX, NUC9i9QNX, NUC9i7QNX, NUC9i5QNX User Guide – May 2020 To remove a SO-DIMM, follow these steps: 1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 5. 2. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the computer. Turn off the computer and disconnect the power cord. 3. Remove the computer’s bottom chassis cover. 4. Gently spread the retaining clips at each end of the memory socket, which causes the module to pop out of the socket (C). 5. Holding the module by the edges, lift it away from the socket, and store it in an anti-static package. 6. Reinstall and reconnect any parts you removed or disconnected to reach the memory sockets. 7. Replace the computer’s cover and reconnect the power cord.
