My computer died about a month ago, but I waited for the new X570 motherboards and Zen 3000 chips from AMD. Now that I see the initial reviews of the processors, I’m leaning more toward an X470 board (1, because Zen 3 is still supported, and 2, I have an SFF case so I am limited to ITX mobos and the only ITX mobo available for X570 right now is from Gigabyte. I have not had success with Gigabyte products in the past, so I am not going with that board. ASUS is supposedly making one, but it is not available day 1)
My question is, is anyone using an X470 ITX board they would recommend, or do I go buy a new case for my next build that can work with full ATX boards and put an ATX X470 in it? If you think a new case is in order, recommendations for the case would be appreciated.
The reason I was holding on to getting an X570 board was I want to upgrade my video card as well and I thought Navi would need PCIe gen 4, but that does not appear to be the case. From reviews I’ve seen, we’re not even maxing out PCIe 3 yet, so I can get a previous generation board and Navi and Zen 3000 will still work.
So, any recommendations on an ITX X470 board that has worked well for the community would be appreciated. Thanks for your help with this.
