2.25 Shipping Considerations for System Integrators
The Intel® NUC 13 Extreme Kit is designed to properly integrate full length triple slot add-in-
cards. Due to drop forces exerted on packages being shipped, it is recommended where possible
to ship the add-in-card separately to avoid damage to the interior of the NUC 13 Extreme Kit
chassis or the add-in-card itself.
When shipping the add-in-card separately is not possible it is highly recommended to use the
included GPU Support Bracket and potentially add ESD-Safe packing material in-between the
add-in-card and the bottom panel, as well as around the add-in-card to prevent vibration and the
chance to dislodge the card mid shipment. Figure 18. GPU support Bracket Installation

NOTE
Packaging material must be removed from system prior to operation to maintain proper thermal
performance of the NUC 13 Extreme Kit.
