yee I did see that. another round of psychedelics for the boys at asrock, what an absolute crackhead design team, in the absolute best way. X99-ITX [0][1][2] and X299-ITX[3][4][[5] were both masterpieces in their own way too, and they've been one of the teams that has been cooking the hardest with intel and AMD both. Supermicro is there too but a lot more conservative at times, except[6] (look at the usb, and... audio...)... good point, hadn't considered that board. I do hope they loosen up, but a high-end server market board is not completely the same thing either.

The Asrock Rack series are really really good now and I think both their AM4 and SP3 platforms are really appealing. ROMED8-2T is everything a motherboard should be. Except for SFP+, of course. But Asrock Rack's design teams really have a good pulse on what the prosumer/homelab/soho market wants, they have been pumping out a ton of great designs lately. https://www.asrockrack.com/general/productdetail.asp?Model=ROMED8-2T#Specifications https://www.asrockrack.com/general/productdetail.asp?Model=R...
