Forgive me, I somehow forgot the Asus ROG STRIX B650E-I Gaming was a thing. I will get my hands on this board as soon as I can and include it in the next update. I might be able to get it in time for the AliExpress Mini-ITX update!

I’ve built 2 ASRock B650i and 1 ASRock A620i PCs so far. Great value (for ITX) and no issues. Love that they didn’t skimp on the VRM on the A620i, gives budget ITX builders an actual option.

Asrock becoming hero for this generation is something I didn't expect...

Hey guys, one suggestion: when showcasing these ITX board, it is very crucial that you give viewers how it looks at the back of the motherboard. This might not be important for larger form factor, but in small form factor world, looking at the back of the board can give users some idea about the compatibility of the CPU coolers.

Just bought a Cooler Master NR200 case so this video is very timely, thanks!

Thanks for your hard work Steve! finally a test on the AsRock B650I Lightning! :)

[VeritronX]

I got the MSI over a year ago for what translated to just under 200 usd.. no idea why it's 290 usd now.

[pkpnyt]

Yes, I've been waiting for this!

[ZomgZomg]

cheers for all the hardwork you and your team does!

[DasBreen]

As I'm looking to move into the Fractal Era 2 case, this roundup came at quite a good time. Thanks for all of your testing and updates!!

[AxleLotl]

That ASROCK A620 has me sold!
Straight into my Velka 3 build 😁

[TheJamesKF]

Love to see the deeper dive into itx boards! I'm finally turning over the Gigabyte B550i build I have to my son I've ran since it came out. This is timely info regarding the AM5 itx options. Personally I'm going to hold out for the next AM5 chipset to see if any of those are in itx and how they compare. Maybe some sales on these 'old' boards will come about?

12:00 - Very nice way of measuring the thermals. Very comfortable to do

[OnlyAnOpinion]

Asrock a620 board with a 7800X3D would be great proposition for the price, great work steve

[Excalabur]

Credit where credit is due, well done Asrock on really upping your game! And thanks for all your efforts Steve.

[vulcand]

I'm using the Gigabyte B650i Auros Ultra and it is an awesome mobo. 3x m.2 and one being PCIE 5 is really cool. Combined with the 7800x3D it is a killer combo.

[tantofaztestes]

wow, my Asrock A620I Lightning WiFi just arrived now.
tks

[perceptivity_]

I got the B650i Aorus Ultra just because it has 3 NVME slots which is super good for an ITX pc.

[Tifeejanz]

If you guys saw what kind of a620 they bring to Brazil you would die laughing

[Muageto]

Thanks for looking into ITX offerings :)
