GIGABYTE BRIX Gaming GT Desktop Spotted
Gigabyte is outing a new and small Gaming GT series. BRIX. Armed with a Core i7-6700K and either a GeForce GTX 1070 or 1080 this should be quite a powerful unit.
Gigabyte is offering two SKUs (1070/1080), otherwise we're not seeing any differences in-between the two models.
Already installed in the PC is an Intel i7-6700K processor, operating at a quad-core base frequency of 4.0 GHz, which comes with Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 Technology which gives users an extra burst of performance when needed. GIGABYTE ensures you won’t be hindered by lack of connections. The backwards compatible Type-C Thunderbolt 3 can connect to Thunderbolt devices, displays and countless peripheral devices. It operates at 40 Gb/s, four times faster than USB 3.1. In practical terms, this means that you can transfer a 4K movie in less than 30 seconds.

Well not something I'd buy, but shows that it's possible to have more high end performance in a console size.
I do wonder about the heat though...
