So lately I've had the itch to take my 800D build down to a mini-ITX
What's been plaguing this build to start is the lack of a suitable motherboard.
I've been looking at what's out and a few press releases on new things, but it seems the boom for mini-ITX builds that manufacturers still aren't releasing any viable options for at least two pci-e lanes as of yet.
I'd like to put a 670 in there alongside my Xense sound card. I have specific requirements for this sound card so I can't let it go, meaning if there isn't anything coming out soon then I may either hold off or just not do the build at all. I've also been considering some micro-atx boards but would rather stick to mini-ITX as a goal.
Has anyone heard of anything new that's possibly coming out with the optional PCI-e slot? Doesn't even have to be 16x just a regular 1x is fine.
