I don't believe there are any AM3+ MITX motherboard out there or did I miss one? But yea this would be fine as I see no reason you can't do something like this on this form factor its just missing some of the points X99 has. Would honestly be a sweet tiny machine for some crazy gaming rig in a tiny case.People run octo AMD chips in one.. This uses less power... so... Im sure it will be fine.
Most people find that these chips run cooler temperature wise (not heat mind you) than Haswell/Devil's Canyon CPUs... 'dat solder and all.
I know right, I would love to try a 5820K + R9 295X2 with core clocks at 4.5ghz inside something like a tiny MITX case. Would be hilarious to see someone gaming at 1440 144hz easily in something so small!This + 5960X + Titan Z/R9 295X would be an absolute mini monster. And you could theoretically fit this into a case the size of a shoebox. POWAHHHH
I really wish they had found a way to run Quad channel memory on this size would probably be the only improvement I would seek. But that would be very hard...
