• Wattage is 290 watts - definitely want a larger power supply than the included.

• The output is 290 Watts. Also, there are no extra connectors, even for extra drives. There's power for the included drive, which you can swap out. If you want an additional drive, you have to get a power splitter. As for upgrading the video card, you'd want to get a new power supply with it. The 1070 needs ~150 watts vs. ~30 watts for the 1030. There's ample vents on the side of the case, if you upgraded both.
