if dont want to spend so much (ironic as mitx is expensive as hell), can go ryzen and ddr4. got more options too, with msi, gigabyte, asrock and asus offering b550 and x570 itx boards with 2 m2 slots.

Ya but nvm la think i just go with the strix since that is the only one.

How about a X570 Ryzen server motherboard in m-itx form factor for you?

Tip: Get angled connectors (display out, etc) so that your IO is clean and not cluttered looking

Haha thanks bro, the cooler is a Scythe Big Shuriken 3. Actually i just realized the Xproto mini design is abit different, on the Xproto L there is a space in the middle frame to route the cables out of sight but not sure if mini is possible.

In any case for anyone one considering to build the OG or L version, this is the angled connector i was referring to: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000351340491.html?spm=a2g0o.order_detail.0.0.631df19cMqIEG8

I missed out on the 8.8 deals from performance PC the Adata XPG Lancer or something about $260ish also.. and yes this Strix is the only board with 2x m.2 lol. What HSF you using ah and what processor?
Am using the Noctua c14s HSF on a i7-12700. Mine is an ITX build (CM nr200)

Sorry for reviving this thread but figured that good to update y’all.

Finally found the time to get some parts and build up this little side project.
