Hey Everyone! I am currently working on a new pc build. I have all my parts ready but am hesitating on a mobo. I am not sure what to get. The motherboard needs to be Mini-ITX, as I will be using a Corsair 380T. Also, I wont be overclocking so I was thinking of going with a B150 chipset. I have an intel core i7 non-k cpu. Also, this is not mandatory but my pc has a blue theme to it, so finding a blue mobo would be great. However, I would prefer a mobo that can support high speed RAM (3000 DDR4 speeds, etc). What would be my best bet? Please let me know if im missing anything crucial that you need to know. Thanks guys.

PS this is for gaming and i am using a GTX 1070

If you want DDR4 3000 on ITX, then Z170/270 board is about the only thing that could meet your demand.
In ATX/mATX form factor, MB from ASROCK Hyper line can BLCK overclock and achieve the higher speed RAM, but ITX? Not possible.

H110/B150/H170 only support DDR4 2133; B250/H270 can support up to DDR4 2400.

Thank You SO MUCH! Here is my build. I have decided to just spend the extra 50$ to overclock, and also be able to use faster RAM. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/nZJMyf
