    Memory ASRock DeskMini X300 - RAM question

    Prebuilt asrock deskmini max - 10L

    must be another board, that one doesn't have 4 ram slots. I guess the GPU is mounted horizontally, 20cm length restriction lines up with case depth of 22cm. vertical would require some cm clearance for bottom connectors and the odd bay seems to be at the top (optionally replaced by an 140mm aio...

    where did you find this? dimensions on asrock website is 155x155x80 @ 1.92L for both a300 and x300. 85mm height would put it above 2L volume mark. I hope you're right though. anyone thought about fitting a tiny aio inside this? eg...

    Prebuilt [SFFn] ASRock's DeskMini A300 - Finally!
