1MB Image, I'll leave it as a link.

Please update: ASrock Fatal1ty : 1x Intel Gigabit LAN

grrr, the only one with thunderbolt-c only has 1x m.2 slot

 

[VegetableStu]

oh eff, it's the mitx that has two, not the fatal1ty ._.

grrr, the only one with thunderbolt-c only has 1x m.2 slot

On the bright side, thunderbolt NAS...?

 

[Vittra]

I would gladly take PCI-E bifurcation, HDMI 4K @ 60hz, and Thunderbolt 3 over just having 2x M.2.

Due to that, the Fatal1ty is my choice for the best mITX for Z370 - though the Z270 board was also my choice for the same reasons.

I was actually thinking unraid & TB eGPU Would actually allow me to throw the really noisy and massive computer away my gf uses for gaming on...

that said, total sized and cost efficiency should point me down the matx route instead, but i really love my ncase m1. I've not seen any micro atx cases i'd want to swap that for (yet)

Im trying asrock this time since im disapointed that asus did not make "premium itx mobo" like impact line was.
