I thought I'd create a quick post about this, as it seems to be an awesome little mini PC if anyone is out there shopping for a Nuc sized solution, only with much more GPU power and a replaceable CPU to suit your needs.
You can get a pre-built config with CPU, Mem and storage, but considering its socketed the base model with 1050ti GPU is $399 USD (BYO: CPU, Memory, Storage)
Specs:

I've ordered one myself and am planning on testing a bunch of CPU's inside it, as it seems to be able to handle up to 65W CPUs.
So I'll be testing the following CPU's once I have it, to find out where is the best price/performance combo for this little monster.
8700
9700F
9900
9900T
In the meantime here is a teardown :
