Rumor Possibility of AMD on STX form factor

There are so many frieds discussed about AMD solution on STX form factor.
I told Crew ASRock had one AMD FM2+ 5x5 board....
Let me show off one board I found on my boss's table.



We did a very very quick research during CNY.
AMD 2200G box fan is so high that can't be installed into our chassis.
BUT... how about install CPU fan and heatsink separately? HAHAHA...



Only for fun :D

Amd is on STX. I have one of the 5x5 embedded boards..... XD

@ASRock System Make sure to add a 4-pin 12-19v internal power connector

+1 to that idea, a board like that with a hdplex ac-dc unit could make a beasty little brickless passive/silent pc, but can't bring myself to buy an embedded board when a socketed one could support another 2 generations of apu's.

I know. Love STX though.

STX doesn't even need an HDPlex since it already uses an external brick straight into the board. It's another reason why Mini STX + Ryzen APU is a match made in heaven. Seriously, @ASRock System would sell SO many units if they made an AM4 barebones unit, even outside the SFF niche. PLEASE.

We are not talking about the dc-dc unit, rather the 80 and 160W ac-dc units.

I am anti-external brick.
So I want to be able to use an internal ac-dc adapter.

I'm creating an account here just to write on this board :D

@ASRock System If you ever made this product, please sell it on Indonesia.
Many SFF enthusiast will have nerdgasm!

Yes we've still hoping for `even` your Intel based mini-STX board to become available on Indonesia :sadfrog:
But this! AM4 mini-STX board! This will be the holy grail of our SFF system core!!!

OPA FINALLY!!! REEEEEEEEEEEEEET!


Although it's A300. Interesting...

What about X300?

Considering it's a great start, though, I can't complain.

Well, now I gotta make my Quantum Ryzenbox design smaller :D

Also is it possible to overclock the DRAM for this chipset?

Just to be clear, this will work perfectly with 2400G righto?
