Mod Pls don't move my thread to other sub. This is not a serious hardware topic. No traffic there. This is just something I keep as record and learn other people opinion on the build.

Packaging comes with this foam just to fill the empty space.

Don't know price. Itx.
Itx is conventionally unnecessary expensive compared to matx. For this kind of money, recommend to get something more reputable.

MATX offers a good compromise of being smallish yet similar/cheaper price than equivalent full ATX. They also have compact cases that are nearly as small as ITX XL cases without the thermal penalty

The downside is their VRM might not be as plentiful as its ATX brother so you shouldnt fit like an i9 or R9 CPU but then so too is much of ITX mobos.

M-ATX is fine.

Just check the TDP then you will get an idea. All boards should be able to run 65W, with potential limited boost clock.
If the it is 105W/120W then middle-high models will be ok. You will need to the get flagship board (i.e. MSI Mortar) for those higher. HardwareUnboxed has plenty of videos specific to the power delivery of the boards, and you check where it see fits (He stress-tested the boards with the highest end processor).
