Hi All

 

Any of you know of any mITX/ITX motherboard out there with Thunderbolt2 or Thunderbolt3 on the board itself? Not looking for expansion cards as I would need to have a dedicated GPU in this system and I want to keep this in a small form factor.

Gigabyte’s GA-Z170N-Gaming 5 has USB 3.1 Type C connector, but don't know if it supports TB3. 

Intel Core i3 2100 @ 3.10GHz - Intel Stock Cooler - Zotac Geforce GT 610 2GB Synergy Edition

Intel DH61WW - Corsair® Value Select 4GBx1 DDR3 1600 MHz - Antec BP-300P PSU

WD Green 1TB - Seagate 2.5" HDD 1TB - Seagate Barracuda 500GB - Antec X1 E.

Yup. The same goes for Asrock Fatal1ty Z170 Gaming-ITX/ac

 

OP, your best bet is definitely going to be a board with a type-C connector but I don't know of any being full-feature yet. Type-C seems to have been everywhere at CES2016. Have patience.

 

Edit: Oh, according to this, the Gigabyte GA-Z170N-Gaming 5 should get the thunderbolt support via a BIOS update.
