The other key areas that are worth focussing on though comes down to VRM temperatures, which can differ wildly depending on the amount, the capacity of the current that can pass through them, and of course how the various heatsinks handle that power, which in turn, creates heat.
This is a mini-ITX motherboard, it literally has the smallest VRM heatsink of any of the motherboards tested, so I guess it’s of little surprise that it runs noticeably warmer than all the others. Again though, if a 65C VRM heatsink is all it takes to keep the performance on par with the bigger boards… I can live with that!
