Just looking at the motherboard from the top is very impressive. Other than the robust voltage regulator power supply of the large Kaby Lake G CPU, it also has M.2 NVMe storage and DDR4 SODIMM modules. According to PC Perspective, this NUC is part of the “Hades Canyon” on the leaked roadmap back in September. The base “Hades Canyon” NUC for example lists a 65W processor. Although there is also a more powerful “Hades Canyon VR” with a 100W TDP.Intel only talked about use in laptops so it's interesting to see this concoction pop up on a NUC board. Perhaps we'll see more at CES 2018.
