Looking for mini-ITX form factor buying advice

[VinnySem]

I need to build a new system, and I want it to be as small a form factor as possible. From what I can tell, nearly all the mITX and mATX boards are unavailable from both Amazon & Newegg and it seems they are being phased out. Is the buying guide going to be updated any time soon?

Hello VinnySem,
I doubt the Mini-ITX motherboards are being phased out. I just went to the Newegg website and saw the had plenty of Mini-ITX boards. There are more 200 series motherboards than 100 series motherboards but they are there.

Right, I was following the buyer's guide and sticking to the boards listed there. Specifically, I was looking for a mini-ITX board that has DisplayPort, as I have an ulrawide monitor and HDMI has proven problematic to get the correct resolution.

It's 100 % ok to go with the 200 series mini-itx motherboards now that 10.12.6 is out. The August Buyer's guide will have all 200 series motherboards in it.

Oh this is great news! Thanks! Thinking of the Asus ROG Z270 mini-ITX or Micro ATX board
