About this deal

Decent specification for the price and ideal for a budget DDR4 mini-ITX build. Has a PCIe 5.0 card slot with supported processors and dual PCIe 4.0 M2 NVME slots. The lowest price I have seen it for!

Why there is no mini ITX board with 6x sata? Just why

This is why my plex server is still a i7-7770k with GA-Z270N-WIFI motherboard and a PCI card with 8 sata ports.

If you really need 6 ports on modern mini itx you could use a m.2 to dual sata adaptor. (Assuming you don't want to sacrifice the PCI slot for storage)

Would there be any other fees to pay? Customs etc

I have the H670 chipset version of this, pretty sure the layout is otherwise the same, purchased July 2022. Using it with an i5-12500 (non-K). At first I had a few issues with the NVME drive in the second slot disconnecting (WD SN770), but after a few BIOS updates and an SSD firmware update it's been rock solid.

Good price if you want to use DDR4 and don't plan to hugely overclock anything. I think there's a BIOS update for 14th gen CPUs as well, but as mine's been stable I haven't tempted fate by installing that!

Also if I remember correctly the max PL of this board is 150W
