If you’re dead-set on owning an Intel system and have a Core Ultra 200-series Arrow Lake processor in your sights, as well as a Mini-ITX case, then ASRock has not one, but three motherboards vying for your attention. The Phantom Gaming B860I Lightning Wi-Fi we’re looking at here is the middle of the three in terms of price and features, sitting at $219, which is also roughly what the competition has its B860 offerings set at too.
It's less imposing than those options from Asus or Gigabyte, with smaller heatsinks and perhaps lacking a little wow-factor in the aesthetics department too by comparison, with Gigabyte offering an all-white motherboard and Asus sporting a moody black design with large heatsinks.
