New member here, wanted to comment on something I noticed recently: the new EN1070K Kaby Lake SFF box from Zotac has a larger power supply than the old EN1070 skylake version from last year. This seems to be totally ignored in all of the PR/news. They just went on sale recently at Newegg.
See the comparison of the two models at the Zotac website:
Old version (look under the mechanical heading, it says 180W): https://www.zotac.com/us/product/mini_pcs/magnus-en1070#spec
New version (this time it says 230W):
https://www.zotac.com/us/product/mini_pcs/magnus-en1070k#spec
From what I remember, all the reviews I read on this box last year mentioned how the weak power supply hamstrung GPU performance pretty badly, in some cases worse than a standard desktop 1060 part.

Any Magnus owners here on the forum?
I'm hoping to see somebody review the new 1070K edition soon.
