BIOSTAR Intros B660T-Silver Mini-ITX Motherboard

BIOSTAR today introduced the B660T-Silver, a Socket LGA1700 motherboard in the Mini-ITX form-factor, based on the Intel B660 chipset. The board wires a 12th Gen Core "Alder Lake" processor with DDR4 memory, and a PCI-Express 5.0 x16 slot. It draws power from a combination of 24-pin ATX and 8-pin EPS connectors, and uses a 9-phase CPU VRM. Up to 64 GB of dual-channel DDR4 memory is supported, at overclocked speeds of up to DDR4-5000.

Storage connectivity of the BIOSTAR B660T-Silver includes four SATA 6 Gbps ports, and two M.2-2280 slots with PCI-Express 4.0 x4 wiring, one of which is connected to the CPU, and the other from the B660 PCH. Network connectivity includes a 2.5 GbE port driven by a Realtek RTL8125B, and provision for WLAN connectivity, including 2x2 antenna coaxial jacks, and an M.2 E-key slot with PCI-Express 3.0 x1 and USB 2.0 wiring, so you drop in your own WLAN module. 6-channel HD audio driven by a premium Realtek ALC1220 CODEC makes for the rest of it. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Any reason to buy biostar? (My perhaps one or two decades out of date impression is that biostar is cheap to a fault and better value is found by spending a bit more elsewhere.)

If you don't like to update your BIOS then BIOStar is the perfect choice for you, since they rarely offer updated BIOS' for their boards. /s

Yes. They are basically as good as any other brands. Not sure about others, but their BIOSes are quite awesome and imo BIOS quality is better than shoddy Gigabyte. I would honestly rather stay away from AsRock. Way too many times they have built badly overheating boards. I could understand it happening sometimes, but AsRock doesn't give a flying fuck and I lost trust.

The black version can be found for 168 euro, There aren't enough $99 /euro/ mitx boards on the market, like any at all. This is asking too much for a dead socket not supporting meteor lake.

Keen to see a review for this and how the vrm pairs up, there isn't too much out there for this segment of motherboards and have seen great VRM from biostar in recent builds, any idea on the pricing?
