ymdhisThe 7745HX comes with a Radeon 610M so it's no different than if you bought any other ITX board and any other desktop Ryzen chip except maybe in power usage. Also this board doesn't have much I/O on the back either, to make room for cooling slots. I understand that it's meant to be a slim client / mini PC board, an environment where USB hubs are common, but still.

If it had a Phoenix APU (up to Radeon 780M), and maybe one or two USB3 headers on the board, then it would probably be my next upgrade, especially if the four NVMe slots can all work simultaneously.

Shou MikoThis here is a cool idea, I would love get one but it's too expensive for my wallet :(

I have that the chip has 28 PCI-E 5.0 lanes which means full x16, 2x X4 NVME but where has the last 4 lanes gone? :D

Selayai mean, nothing's stopping you from delidding yourself ...
i just feel like a 7840 would've been a better/more interesting product than ... this

ChaitanyaThere are M.2 sata controller cards, granted you would need large cutout on rear of motherboard panel to access those.
