This is the board no-one asked for and no-one really wanted.
* only 4-pin CPU power connector
* Same old RTL8111G/H and ALC887 combo. At least they did not put ALC662 in it.
* Probably uses some shitty offbrand eDP to VGA bridge (possibility of image noise and eventual failure, like with Parade ones)
* System hub heatsink is even smaller than the one they use on Intel boards
Plus I can already see at least one little production fuck-up on the board itself: front panel connector legend is upside-down. Someone's gonna gave a really good day assembling their first tiny PC.
I'm perfectly comfortable for an htpc build with just one hdmi port, a couple of sata and a couple of usb 3.0 (one for wifi, one for wireless receiver). If the price is right it's gonna be an OK product.
Looking down at the bottom of the CPU support list. :D
Is that chocolate or vanilla?
Also any board not having a m.2 for a NVME drive in 2019 is throwable through the window also.Ah my bad, it has.
This board lands into the china huanan territory... i like the screw hole design. They do economy on solder even there xD, bravo.
People who buy those will just plop in a 65W APU with a Noctua fan and never overlock it.
it is x470, it works on paper right ;)
