    https://www.techpowerup.com/244107/asus-intros-prime-h310t-motherboard Oh boy! Even though it doesn't have a PCIe 4x slot it does have the M.2 4x slot so there are GPU options for us. I'd love to snatch up one of those if only to be able to go 6-core in the future on Thin ITX.

    Via CNX. With support for what appears to be a full power -K CPU, Optane, Thunderbolt, and a dGPU. Maybe Intel took note of what certain individuals have done with Skull Canyon and 5x5/STX boards and GPUs.
