Would you expect different performance for the same chipset matx vs mini-itx

Logic would suggest no but I have never built an itx yet

I am looking at a mini itx build on a i3-2105. I already have the chip in a matx on a h61 chipset. I was going to test if it is sufficient for what I want the itx build tondo on that first before getting a mini itx h61 board and case

More details of end use and build spec here http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18613333

But essentially if it works in the current matx then it should work in the itx?

No - but it depends on the board!

The only difference between these boards is the number of internal/external USB ports, SATA ports and PCIe slots. Everything else will remain the same. Depending on the board, you'll still get overclocking and power features.

Thanks.

You might see monor fluctuations in synthetic benchmarks but as above you won't notice it day to day operations.
