ASRock Introduces the DeskMini H470 & DeskMini X300
The leading global motherboard, graphics card and mini PC manufacturer, ASRock, proudly announces the all-new DeskMini H470 and DeskMini X300. The ASRock DeskMini H470 adopts the Intel H470 chipset to support Intel 10th Gen 65 W LGA1200 processors and dual-channel DDR4-2933 memory. Relying on advanced power design, it supports exclusive BFB (Base Frequency Boost) Technology to allow users to bump non-K processors speed to enhance system performance.
The all-new DeskMini X300 not only supports AMD latest Ryzen 4000 series APU, but also allows users to adjust CPU/GPU core clock, and tuning voltage to excavate APU potential power. DeskMini X300 supports 8 Cores Ryzen 7 APU and dual-Channel DDR4-3200+MHz (OC) memory, which leads to outstanding computing power and 3D performance.The Power of 10! - DeskMini H470
DeskMini H470 not only features USB Alternate Mode Type-C, providing 4K resolution DisplayPort signal, up to 60-watt power delivery, and 5 Gbps data transfer through one cable. Also, it supports USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A & Type-C in the front panel to offer rapid connection. It brings Ultra M.2, dual SATA 6
Gb storages, and M.2 Wi-Fi slot. For superior user experience, DeskMini H470 supports 3 video outputs simultaneously via DisplayPort, Type-C DP, HDMI, and D-Sub.Unlocked Power - DeskMini X300
DeskMini X300 is equipped with two Ultra M.2 (2280) slots for PCIe Gen3 high-speed SSDs and two 2.5" SATA 6 Gbps interface for RAID function. Moreover, the DeskMini A300 is able to connect three display outputs simultaneously, which greatly improves the user experiences. It also supports USB 3.1 Gen1 Type-C and M.2 Wi-Fi module, and various accessories within 1.9 Liter compact size.For more information please visit:

Are there Displays, compatible to that specs?
DeskMini X300: is it compatible DIY eGPU (M.2 adapter/linux)? What are the prizes (EU)?
Nice Products
Also, speaking of I/O, this is the strangest product snub to AMD I've seen yet. I get that there is likely no real chipset/southbridge in there, but only 2 USB ports on the back? This isn't an ATX desktop where I can just slot in more PCIe cards for more USB ports. Meanwhile, the Intel version gets 4 USB-A and 1 USB-C on the back I/O. Obviously, both get one of each on the front.
Guessing this has to be a chipsetless implementation and even then its lacking. be an interesting 3d printed stand idea....
And I'd rather have a power brick that I can just hide behind my desk than a bigger computer sitting on the desk, that kind of the point of ultra-SFF. There isn't any extra cabling, either way you have to have a power cable run to the computer. I don't know many displays that can feed 100w to a USB-C connected device. Yeah, you can thank AMD for that one. As you pointed out, since this is chipsetless and relying on the I/O from the APU, it's very limited. So it only has 2x USB3.0 ports available(one in the front and one in the back) and a USB 3.1 port(on the front in USB-C form). There were more USB2.0 ports they could have added other than the one, but what would those realistically be used for these days? Other than plugging a wireless dongle in for your keyboard and mouse to the USB2.0 Port, I can't really think of a reason to have more. Maybe an older printer, but really if you need more USB2.0 ports, a USB2.0 hub is like $5. Heck, USB 3.0 Hubs are like $10 if you need more ports for some reason.

There are quite a few monitors that support USB Power Delivery with 60 to 94W.
It would make more sense to power the Monitor from the PC than the other way around.
