ASRock has now listed a thin-mini ITX motherboard for AM4 processors, the A320TM-ITX

Highlights include:
Bristol Ridge and Raven Ridge Support
Memory support up to DDR-2933, 32GB total supported (QVL currently only has
2x HDMI outputs (one is oddly positioned on the side of the board)
NVME boot support

I've been eagerly awaiting something like this to come to market, to build my Atari 2600 case mod system. I could have done it with an Intel thin system, but really wanted the extra graphics power provided by AMD APU, but traditional mITX boards would be too tall to properly fit. I certainly hope ASRock makes this board available in the NA market.
 
STX board (in the deskmini kit) has better features, if that still fits. Taller but less square footage.

It's the height that causes a problem for this project, specifically the location of the RAM modules. I might be able to make it work, but the thin form factor will work.
 
I decided to reach out to Asrock regarding this motherboard, and surprisingly got a quick response. It wasn't the response I had hoped for though:

Thank you for your interest of ASRock MB. This model only for special project and won’t be available to purchase for regular channel. Thanks
Guess I'm going to be stuck with an Intel board or have to order an Asian exclusive through Taobao.
