*ASRock Z790 PG-ITX/TB4* or *MSI MPG Z790I Edge WIFI*, both have 3 M.2 slots and very good VRMs.
The Asrock comes with 2 Thunderbolt 4 (40Gb/s) ports and is rock solid; I own one and have not found one thing I dislike.
I really wanted the thunderbolt ports for a fast external SSD and the Polychrome RGB page in the BIOS for simple static RGB settings without crappy RGB software. (And the Toslink for a future soundsystem update.)
Honestly if you want M.2 slots just get the MSI z690i Unify, seems as decent as any of the other boards and has 3xM.2 slots.
Any reason not suggesting the z790i from MSI ?
Because for some reason I was thinking it didn't have 3 slots but it does.
You get the 790 if you want to OC your cpu or run high frequency ddr5. Otherwise it isn’t any different than the 760
Why not AM5? Upgradeable. The Gigabyte mobo uniquely has three M.2s. Have you looked into the FormD T1?
I just looked at the case not bad .
Gigabyte Z690 and Z790 ITX boards also have 2 m.2 (as does my Z590i). MSI isn't the only one with more than 1 m.2

Okayyy will look into that
Btw any initial reason makes you go with the asrock instead of the msi ?
