Much better I/O than its predecessor. I personally like how where the ethernet port is moved to, means a lower I/O profile for some possible slimmer cases.

@ASRock System

Thank you for doing the internal DC header. Any chance of adding this to the Mini STX boards as well (specifically AMD Mini STX if it is actually going to happen?)

So it now supports up to 95W CPUs (previously 65W I believe) but are there any coolers that'd really take advantage of that extra headroom?

I guess that depends how thick you're willing to go. The L9ax65 is a solid cooler, but obviously thicker than many would want. Otherwise the standard L9a or the new Dan cooler are probably the best bets.

Hmmm nope... :<

No worries. Nice work anyways @ASRock System!

Man where can we even buy this? I couldn't even buy the Z370 because its nowhere available in Europe...

@ASRock System That looks awesome!

Love that you decided to include an internal power header!

 

[TinyAudio]

I wish they used this case material and design on the m-STX.. plastic no nice!

 

[Naxgo]

So... we can use the internal power header to sync with a dynamo 360? or am i getting this wrong? is it 5V?

Thanks

Am I right in saying that this just gives me a graphics capability, I have to find a MMX graphics card to use it, and there is some extra M.2? How much storage do I get exactly? I ask as even though it is nice it is also very expensive for what is really just a graphics card slot? I would be paying imports though as it comes via the painfully expensive USA route.

Unless I am missing the point. It seems the AMD version still wins because it is much cheaper and I can get some graphics that way?

This thing has 3 M.2 slots, + a wifi/bluetooth slot. I really wouldn't worry about storage!

There was never a big problem with storage as you got 2 M.2 and 2 SATA with the AMD A300, my point is it seems to cost three times the price but I am not clear why? You are getting what looks like a larger board with an MMX capability. But then an ITX board is a larger board with PCIe capability- not completely as simple as that but people will surely consider an ITX because it will be easier all around. Especially as MMX cards seem to be rare and expensive, I am quite interested to see if AMD launches any ‘MMX’ mobile chips for us (rather than OEM partners). That could solve a few problems as I now find the G chips quite limiting. Being able to stick a 6 core and something solid 1080p is very appealing to me.



It’s showing something like £500 then I have to source an MMX graphics card. As I say I may be being thick and missing something here. Apparently it isnt MMX, my bad.

The DeskMini GTX comes with an MXM graphics card installed.

REally! I mean get this below, I have just written it and C&P;

Don’t get why they are mentioning the GTX 1060? Is that the max it will take? I cant see it coming with a 1060 for £160 that is for sure. But anyway hopefully this will pan out OK.

So I am getting a 1060, and like I can have say a R1600 in there? It was the last one so I was in a rush to buy it so I haven't checked out the details.
