Would the pcie x16 slot mean one'd be responsible to include his own gpu? I kinda liked the whole compact Vega M GH thing, wish they'd update that instead. Onboard Intel graphics such as Iris Plus or Pro have never been a great companion either :/

Adding x16 in a compact NCU. Wouldn't this cause power draw issues if we added GPUs? Can we even add them? So many questions.
