Looks like Asus has gotten out of the mini ATX's.

Which of these other manufacturers makes a good product please?

ASRock? Gigabyte?

Thanks!

you will only know the answer after 3-5 years of usage.

slackwarenewbee,

Not so, here is just one example:

No one manufacturer is greatly superior to another. I tend to look at the Amazon customer feedback for motherboards before making a decision.

I used an ATX board for my recent AMD build:

Personally I have had success with an Asrock board but as stated, there are numerous ways to get where you need to go.

Please check what you need and pick a nice motherboard for that purpose. A more expensive one generally offers more perks like more SATA ports, support for more memory etc.

If you don't need a lot of graphics power you could opt for an AMD with built-in graphics; if you then choose a motherboard with 2 HDMI ports you can put 2 screens on it. If you do please get fast RAM because AMD Ryzen loves fast RAM and built-in graphics really love fast RAM.

There is no standard size called mini ATX. The three most popular MB form factors are (full size) ATX, micro-ATX, and mini-ITX.

That is a micro-ATX board which is a standard size. The maximum size of a microATX motherboard is 9.6 × 9.6 in (244 × 244 mm).

I've never used ASRock boards. Gigabyte has always been a good manufacturer.

Take a look at MSI. I'm using one of their motherboards (not a mini-ATX, though) in my desktop system and I'm quite happy with it (it's been humming along for -- good grief -- ~7 years). I can't see how quality would be affected by the form factor. They're worth taking a look at.

HTH...
