ASRock's mITX motherboard for the Intel X299 socket, Great overclocking/BIOS support for such a small board, Support for up to three M.2 and six SATA devices, Superior audio performance, Highly capable VRM design, even for HCC CPUs
Limited PCIe connectivity (due to form factor), Number of SO-DIMM slots (limited by form-factor), Front panel add-on board is flimsy and too thin, Needs pre-defined overclocking profiles, Aggressive voltage settings on automatic overclocking - full manual

The ASRock X299E-ITX/ac is priced at $399 on Newegg and lands it towards the higher end of all X299 motherboards. If we look at only the Mini-ITX space, it is in a class of it its own because it is the only ITX size board currently out for X299. It also m...

The only X299 MiniITX consumer motherboard, Good overall performance, Great overall efficiency, Surprisingly high overclocks, SkylakeX requirement provides two M.2's via CPU PCIe
No 110mm M.2 card support, Connecting third M.2 slot to PCH excludes RAID 5 via VROC, Only six total I/Opanel USB ports, and four of those share bandwidth, No voltage regulator temperature reporting, No Kaby LakeX support
The only consumer Mini-ITX motherboard for LGA 2066 becomes our only choice for these builds. Users who are certain that they have sufficient airflow over the voltage regulator will be very pleased with its overclocking capabilities, and those less ce...
Great connectivity options, LGA2066 on M-ITX, with quad channel memory, no less, Front daughterboard can be removed with no major issues, barring the reduced ports,
Airflow issues with the daughterboards and memory forming a mini box on the board, Your PSU needs a 12V rail to boot – something most DCDC power supplies do not have, No Thunderbolt
The ASRock X299e-ITX/ac is a posterchild for SFF systems – a motherboard with very few compromises in a tiny space. A fully featured “Little Monster” has reached the market place at a price of just under US$400 (on Newegg.com), highlighting its uncompromi...
ASRock has done a fine job with the X299E-ITX/ac; it might be one of my favorite X299 motherboards. It's just so cool! I love how ASRock figured out how to get all those components and traces on the motherboard. While the rear IO might look like it could...
For the niche called ITX, more and more motherboards are now available - both for Intel and AMD. A motherboard manufacturer who clearly sees the potential is ASRock, but other manufacturers also have an increasingly extensive range. The market wants to fo...

This motherboard is clearly not for everyone. If you answer yes to the next few questions, then it's the motherboard for you. Are you building an extremely hardware dense workstation around X299? Does it have to pack loads of hardware and still fit into a...

No square millimeter of the ASRock X299E-ITX/ac circuit board has been left unused. The large socket 2066 takes up a lot of the board and for that reason there was simply no room left for a lot of functionality. To be able to offer some of this functional...

Triple M.2 and plentiful SATA/USB, Dual Gigabit and integrated Wi-Fi, Quad-channel memory, Custom waterblock available, Innovative use of daughterboards and underside PCB placement, Keeps up with “normal” X299 motherboards, Compact but potent VRM
SO-DIMM memory is more expensive, High density of components means high airflow needed to cool M.2 drives and CPU VRMs
No motherboard vendor approaches the mini-ITX form factor with the same daring quirkiness as ASRock, particularly for Intel's High-End Desktop (HEDT) platform. The ASRock X299E-ITX/ac certainly brings something refreshing to an often monotonous enthusiast...
Abstract: With its ability to cram up to 18 physical cores into the tiny Mini-ITX form factor, the X299E-ITX/ac is ASRock's second take on putting big processors into smaller boxes. So unusual was its predecessor that we gave it our best in class award just for bei...
