I’m planing to buy 14600K and set TDP to 65W (I can not find non-K variant). I’m also going to use ECC memory (DDR4 or DDR5).
I’m looking for a Mini ITX motherboard that is power efficient and that allows me to disable unneeded features such as WiFI.
From what I have read, the K CPUs must be used with Z chipset. Is this true? Do you recommend any motherboard?
If you need ECC UDIMM support and true ITX, there are quite literally zero options on the market.
If you can use a “deep-ITX” board, ASRock Rack offers the only model available:

If you don’t mind using ECC SO-DIMMs, there are a few ITX spec boards:
