Haswell Mini-ITX motherboard with Thunderbolt?

niemion · Jun 3, 2013

Hi

Do you know of any M-ITX mainboards that has Thunderbolt?

Secondly, have you seen any with four memory slots so it's possible to feature it with 32GB RAM?

You're going to be hard pressed to find a mITX with 4 RAM slots- there is just no room for it.

What about room for Thunderbolt connectivity?

Should be plenty if they decide to add Thunderbolt. Not sure which one supports though

I'm actually shocked that so few of the Z87 boards includes Thunderbolt. In Europe I have only been able to find boards without Thunderbolt in stock so far.

Not many use Thnderbolt, and mITX caters to a crowd small enough already

It's the same with all boards no matter the size. Thunderbolt is/would be good for many things but market adoption is slow to the point of non existant.

Have a look at Anandtechs Z87 preview: http://www.anandtech.com/show/6970/...asus-gigabyte-asrock-msi-ecs-biostar-and-evga

I could suggest Gigabyte G1.Sniper 5 or ASUS ROG Maximus VI Hero, but check out the preview yourself.
