The fact the audio expansion on the Strix looks like it blocks coolers is disappointing (it's so big, just why), especially for people that go full air cooling as small as possible. That and there being no M.2 slots on board the Impact board and doesn't look like there are too many great options in the new ASUS ITX range.

There are no winners in the "I want to air cool this thing" category in regards to the X570 / AM4 ITX / M-DTX motherboard offerings...

I think unless you are using a 3800x or 3900x we are going to be better off waiting for the B550.

I will probably go for the Asrock offering, the Thunderbolt is quite useful to me, at least I could add 10GbE to it. I think such high speed external bus is one of the most optimal usage of the PCIe lanes for as sff PC.

If you aren't running a 12 or 16 core or wanting to RAID Gen 4 NVME, do you really need more than a MSI B450i? I'm struggling with that myself
