Searching for an ITX board compatible with 5950x specifications.
The 5950X fits perfectly with any B550 board you have. The X570 is an option too, but it seems unnecessary for typical ITX setups unless you require multiple PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots.
I chose the b550 for this reason, and 2nme is great to own, though the other side uses pcie 3.0. 2.5g is useful for my nas, and the front usb-c is solid. The nr200p lacks it, but I can build one. I found a mod that works with it, and I believe phantom supports newer hardware like the b550 (e.g., BT 5.1). Having usb 3.2 ports is nice, even if bandwidth isn’t critical. The back panel looks neat and well-organized—it’s just the profile. It runs hotter by about 10c compared to other models, though I’m not sure if that can be fixed. Also, why does this board have 90 amps mosfet while 50 seems sufficient? As with ASUS Strix, it’s almost double the power.
