Hey all

So im in the market for an ITX mobo and cpu, maining for using as a media server and some gaming. Ultimately this is going to be tied to a 1080TI so needs enought grunt to run this. Im really out of touch with current cpus and chipsets etc. I know intel is launching coffee shop in the next few days so i can wait a couple of weeks max for this. but will itx boards be available on launch?

Requirements 4 core minimum not too fussed on HT
ITX size
overclockable board
M.2 ideally
support a 1080ti at full speed.

TIA for any advice
 
its going into a Node 202 case that OCUK currently have on a super offer so just grabbed one. Im really hesitant to go amd but dont know why. also i think that ram might be a little too tall. the stock cpu cooler is certainly to tall CPU coolers is where i really am going to struggle i think. Going to have to find the best low profile cooler i can.

Is ryzen living upto the hype and delivering decent performance then?
 
just been on the tube and well getting quite tempted by ryzen tbh. as you say the socket looks to have a decent life span too. have to say the X is looking temping too for the extra stock clock.

memory does look like a pain in the arse with ryzen
