Anyone know if Motherboard manufacturers will ever start building an ITX board around the AM3-AM3+ chipset. I was really pissed they didn't go further with the FM1 socket, Best I can get for mine is an Athlon 651K. Think it might bottleneck with a 78-7950 Radeon.

you can get mini-ITX boards for am3, they just aren't very common, http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/?cid=2&gid=361&sgid=919&pid=319&psn=&lid=1&leg=0 , that is one made by sapphire, am3+ processors on the whole run pretty hot and were never meant to be run in small enclosures.

I seen that one but not really aimed for the average consumer. I'm looking for USB3, HDMI, AUDIO, etc. Those where mainly built for the business end of computing. I also seen the one built by J&W, but not up to date enough to be worth buying it now.

Cheers
