The CI431 nano uses an Intel Core 3 304 with one P-Core and four low-power E-Cores, providing five cores and five threads with a 4.3 GHz boost. It includes one Xe-core running up to 2.3 GHz and a 15 TOPS NPU. The CI451 nano features an Intel Core 5 320 with two P-Cores and four low-power E-Cores, offering six cores, six threads, a 4.6 GHz boost, two Xe-cores up to 2.5 GHz, and a 16 TOPS NPU. The CI471 nano uses an Intel Core 7 350 with a 4.8 GHz boost, two Xe-cores up to 2.6 GHz, and a 17 TOPS NPU.

Intel specifies that all three processors use the 18A process, have 6 MB of Smart Cache, a 15 W base power, and a 35 W maximum turbo power. Each system supports one M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 SSD and up to 64 GB of DDR5-6400 memory via a single SO-DIMM slot. I/O includes two Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, three USB 2.0 ports, 2.5 GbE, Wi-Fi 7, and Bluetooth 5.4.
