If anyone is looking for a SFF desktop the GIGABYTE BRIX GB-GZ1DTi7-1070-NK on Newegg is on sale for $1299 from $1700

 

Compared to a MSI Trident Arctic $1500, Corsair One $1800, or the new MSI G25VR w/ 8th gen 1070 at $2000 the Gigabyte is a good deal.

 

Obviously the new MSI G25VR has the latest 8th gen processor and is the smallest of all of these units but is also $700 more than the Gigabyte.  For everyday use the 6700 i7 is more than enough.

 

The size is a little awkward since it's smaller than a regular tower PC but much bigger than Trident or G25 which almost could be hidden in your TV console.  The 6th gen 6700 i7 isn't a problem for me but for people who need/want six cores maybe wait for a possible refresh.  The system is fairly loud even under idle and under load it's loud even in my living room but I wouldn't say much more than my PS4.

I agree these are all expensive and I am waiting for someone to make a comment how they could build a system for a third of the price lol, but for what I wanted size and convience wise buying a pre-built SFF was just a no brainer
