Performance wise the b660 with i5 13500 will be faster, single score will be close but multithread will be about 40% faster.
As for cooling the i5 13500 will run a little hotter by design using it with the stock cooler, a good replacement cooler would be the Thermalright AXP-90 X47.
New bios has been release yesterday 12.02 https://www.asrock.com/nettop/Intel/DeskMini B660 Series/index.asp#BIOS
AsRock also updated the info regarding bios 8.02 confirming 13th Gen cpu's
new deskmini b760 / x600 and new deskmeet rumored for 2023 https://wccftech.com/asrock-readies-next-gen-deskmini-deskmeet-pcs-amd-x600-intel-b760-motherboards/
Completely agree with you, Different cooler and case would definity required.
Now to peak everyone interest 100w can be surpass but require a different PSU and undervolting can be enable via a bios-mod.
A user by name of "ren" from computerbase.de forum explain the process and test it too...
Seem like this board has potential but the vrm / power limit seem to be the issue.
Although i would be interrested running it with i5-13600(K), watercooling it might be the answer for the cpu / vrm.
I also do wonder if a higher wattage psu could be used?
NEWS: A user was able to test i7-13700k...
I have thought about it but not sure of the best solution. Small 40mm fans could help or custom vrm heatsink ?
If anyone has some better ideas let me know
"This really crazy and cool at the same time" Exact feeling I have every time I look this project or do research regarding it.
As for the use case will be used for music production, video editing, vm/proxmox and networking many more.
A learning platform for anything like to get into / fool...
Thank you 🙏
The IO cover seen in the picture is actual from the same company that make the the ram heatsink cover. http://shop2.megmall.cafe24.com/category/io-protect/25/
External radiator with some kind of desk stand is the plan. Pump with quick disconnect mounted in back of the case.

Welcome to this EPYC project of mine lol This has been about 1y + few months in the making and also still in progress haha
The crazy idea is to cram as much high quality / performance wise components in a relative small open case, watercooled it and make it one of kind.
My birthday is coming up...
