Haven't read through the whole thread, but I have encountered some problems, just want to hear peoples opinons, I have this MB on bios F3, just updated the SIV function, but get weird reads like actual fan speed different to the stated speed on the personised settings. Just thinking of reverting back to the old version of the SIV program that came with the supplied disk.

Motherboard GIGABYTE AB350N-Gaming WIFI

I'm looking into using that motherboard in a NAS box (NSC-800, currently running a C2550D4I), with a few oddities to use a 2nd expansion card off the m.2 connector (8 or 16-port SAS card off the pcie x16, 10Gbe card off the m.2 through an extender). It looks like the Gigabyte mITX is the only one available right now where the m.2 connector is oriented towards the 'front' of the motherboard instead of the rear, which is necessary to get around of the problems I'm facing.
Unfortunately there's a few space constraints. Would someone be willing to take a few measurements if they have one of those motherboards available?
As illustrated, I would need to know how far the m.2 connector is from the side of the pcb, and how far to the front edge of the pcb. If possible I would also like to know how high the m.2 connector 'sticks out', since there seems to be 2-3 different common heights out there and some will be too proud for me to fit in the case.

@maeslin - red measures 13mm, green 118mm. Height of connector is 4mm, with the top of a M.@ ssd at ~3.5mm.
Thanks! I checked a few things and that definitely opens the possibility of fitting two expansion cards in a NSC-800! It's just aggravating that it seems most mini-ITX motherboards orient the m.2 connector the other way around (m.2 card going towards the rear of the motherboard).
I'll post updates to said project on the forum.
I am thinking of buying this board with ryzen 2700x but worried about that no post.. BIOS will be flashed anyway because of the new ryzen.
Can Scythe ninja 4 (With am4 adapter) go on the board? What about Noctua NH-U14S
(memory would be gskill ripjaws 3000mhz (pretty high heatsinks))

Just noticed a totally new B450 mITX board from Gigabyte!
Obvious differences are the 2 HDMI and 1 DP, all capable of 4k60 running at the same time, and it also gets Intel LAN and upgraded WiFi
Also love how beefy the VRM heatsink is, a far cry from the thumb sized plastic piece on my B350 ITX.
They've also gone back to a more 'standard' layout for the connectors, if this board reviews well I'll be building a second 2400g and will delegate the old b350 ITX to HTPC

Thank you so much for posting this! I like that Gigabyte did a full rethink of the board. My biggest concern is the VRM heatsink despite its increased size. Like many of the others, there aren't many fins on the heatsinks to more effectively disappate the heat (largely ornamental). Missing the second M.2 drive slot. Love the heatsink for the M.2 drive slot on top of the board though (despite the design).Just noticed a totally new B450 mITX board from Gigabyte!

Me having inside info about Gigabyte, the headquarters in Cali are getting their shipment of new B450 boards the 19th. So I think before the end of the month!
Source is that their sending me one of the B450 mATX model for my 2700X.
