Yes i know, but cannot find hynix kit. So dont want buy yet else remain as paper weight until can find hynix kit.

Dont want go through same experience in DDR4 of buying over 5 ram kits only to end up still buying samsung Bdie.

Exactly, can't build a midrange Intel i5 mITX with those prices.

Looks like have to go with budget builds. Hopefully 2023 prices will get better.

A little off topic, but I notice a lot of experts in this thread. I got Asus Prime Z690-A mobo. The specs says it supports up to DDR5 6000. Does this mean a DDR5 6000 would be the absolute limit? Say in the future something like a DDR5 8000 CL30 becomes a common mainstream (much like DDR4 3200 or 3600), this board will never be able to run at those speeds and I have to get a new Z690 board?

Advertised support is from validation. Unofficially, it can do more but it will be more stressful to the memory controller and does not guarantee it will work.

Itx never meant to be a budget build. Even z490 z590 board prices are high. Even B550 too which is supposed to be cheap but top up abit can go for z590.... x570 ITX is another level.

Want budget got for m-atx

Alder Lake ITX boards looks like upside down.

Asus ROG Strix Z690-I - RM2159 - DDR5 and ridiculous price
MSI Z690i Unify - Coming soon. DDR5
Gigabyte Z690i Aorus Ultra DDR4 - RM1549 - Feels overpriced and probably crappy BIOS

Asus ROG Strix B660-I - RM1199 - DDR5 for B660 and RM1.2k? Seriously.
Gigabyte B660i Aorus Pro AX - RM1089 - Single M.2 for a RM1k board? Seriously.
Biostar B660GTN - Coming soon

Can writeoff Asrock now. Declaring it as low quality brand.

Asrock Z690M-ITX/ax - RM1095 - weak VRM. 150W max
Asrock H670M-ITX/ax - Coming soon
Asrock B660M-ITX/ac - Coming soon
*
Asrock always makes entry level trash. It's whether they bother to make high end on the flipside that's another matter (they kinda didn't with Z490).

E.g. B550 - they have both the B550M-ITX/ac (trash specs for entry level price) and the Phantom Gaming ITX/ax (nearly 100% identical VRM to the B550 Aorus Pro ITX, with better CPU socket placement, front USB-C, more usable USB ports and other board headers).

Z690 has the Phantom Gaming ITX line too: https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z690%20Phan...TXTB4/index.asp

does the B660 motherboard have the BIOS option to turn off E cores on i7 12700/12700F? So only left with 8 P cores for less problem in windows 10
