Help with picking up an x570 mobo

I've never tried the ITX size. Is it a lot smaller than ATX?

Yes, ITX is much smaller than ATX. Main compromises would be only having one PCIe slot and 2 DIMM slots on ITX motherboards.

Where is the M. 2 slot? I can't see it on the board?

On the Gigabyte X570 I Aorus Pro WiFi, the M.2 slot is just above the PCIe slot, under the chipset fan area.

To be honest I've never heard it and my case is open at the minute.
It's maybe drowned out by the bequiet dark rock pro 4. I don't think I've seen a setting for switching it off completely, I don't think any of them do?

I'm really curious how you deal with the GPU being so close to the cooler? The gap between the graphics card and cooler is what? 1-1.5cm?
How do you flip the pcie lock lever? With a screwdriver? I want this setup, but I'm thinking of it it's possible to use the pcie-x8 slot below, if it's possible on the -e and -f and if the bandwidth is enough for a 5700 xt? I really don't want to having to rely on a screwdriver if I want to remove the graphics card or he forced to remove the cooler.

I can't recall it being that close. I would need to check. I haven't looked at it in a few weeks due to work.
I think I did remove the graphics card when I was trouble shooting something. It wasn't too much of an issue.
