Prebuilt ASRock Jupiter X300. Thin barebones kit for AM4 APUs, only 1 liter in volume!

ASRock just announced this: https://www.asrock.com/nettop/AMD/Jupiter X300/index.asp

It's basically like the DeskMini X300 but flattened and even smaller. Should still support up to 65W APUs, but I'm curious to see how that blower fan will handle a 4750G...

Anyway I think this is a super cool form factor and great addition to the SFF market.

That is pretty cool. I just picked up a x300 last week and I really wish I had the USB connections this one has.

Looks oddly similar to Lenovo's and HP's SFF boxes.

Hopefully someday soon we get dGPU in these miniPC devices like Hades/Phantom Canyon....or the option for it as in Ghost Canyon

I love these systems for lightweight use...but at the end of it, an APU is still an APU.

This system is abit meh to me since it uses standard itx form factor.
You could build your own thin-itx am4 for a better price and better cooling.

It would have been an awesome device if they made this in stx instead.

I literally just bought another x300 this morning lol. Typical.

Doesn't look that standard to me. Front IO is attached straight to the motherboard and power delivery is integrated as well. A thin ITX case with support for an SSD would be at least twice the volume of this case.

the a320 took forever to be actually available (at least in Europe) so don't hold your breath.
