I have recently acquired a eGPU box, its a Gigabyte Aorus gaming box utilising a thunderbolt 3 connector.

I had planned to use an itx board in a new smaller case with a TB3 output. However the two boards I had planned to use were the:
  • ASRock Fatal1ty Z370M GAMING-ITX/ac
  • ASRock Z390 Phantom Gaming-ITX/ac
Both boards provide thunderbolt 3 outputs but after careful checking this is only using 2 pcie lanes, this limits speed to 10Gb/s. This causes a significant reduction in eGPU performance.

I could use a nuc, but I really want to reuse other components I already have,

Anyone aware of any other itx boards I have missed?
