Nice! It's too bad the 8700K, 8700, and 8600K can't be cooled in the DeskMini GTX chassis. I think hardly anyone bought the Kaby Lake version, so I hope they make the product more appealing this iteration. Maybe improve the GPU cooler and make the case a bit nicer. I'd love to see them ditch 2.5" drive support for a smaller case -- it does have 3 M.2 and at this premium the only thing it has going for it is tiny size.Even then, I'm not sure this concept will ever work with MXM GPU prices being what they are. You could buy a laptop for the same price, people who want something truly portable will just do that. People who don't want something ultra-portable will just build in the S4M or A4-SFX, etc. So this product is kind of in a dead space. It may just be better to do another Mini-STX DeskMini with Coffee Lake and Thunderbolt 3 support. Then you can connect an external GPU, maybe Gigabyte's small one. Much cheaper and better performance./philosophizing
