And don't you think your Ryzen 5 comparison is kind of lame? Which Ryzen 5 Processor can come even closer to this? This performs like a Desktop Ryzen 9 7950 (Non X) variant while requiring fraction of its power and in gaming, it will even beat a 9700X or 9950X due to having the 3D Cache.
The x3D is so that you can put a GPU in the x16 slot. My Ryzen 7700x also has the 610M GPU built in, not because you're intended to game with it but because some people don't game, or you may want an iGPU that you can use while troubleshooting the dGPU.
The way the x3D chips are made is that they take a regular 7945HX (or 9950X, or whatever) and then attach the 3D VCache to the underside of the chip. They don't have a separate process where the wafers are converted to CPUs with the extra cache built in, because the failure rate would make it too expensive.
At any rate, the benchmarks I've seen don't really show that much of an improvement over the non-X3D version of this chip unless you are absolutely CPU limited. And if you're chasing maximum performance you'll want full desktop hardware most likely anyway.

Also whats up with the X3D processor AND Radeon 610M integrated Graphics?

There's no ryzen 5 (even a 9000 or 8000) series that comes even remotely close to this.

If you see a mini itx board, everyone buying it is interested in the form factor. There is a premium for smaller size, I'm one of the people who has paid it happily
Dude, Desktop Ryzen 7000 and 9000 series Processors also come with same integrated Graphic
That's my point. It already has integrated graphics in the CPU (or more correctly the APU)
Quote from Suryasis [IMG]https://slickdeals.net/images/misc/backlink.gif[/IMG] :
It is not a Mini PC to have powerful integrated Graphics, it is a motherboard with a very powerful integrated Processor and a full blown Gen 5 X16 Slot.

Alternatively, this is also helpful for virtualization. You can give the host the iGPU and then pass through the GPU to a VM.

This thing is a monster for the price. You're clearly inexperienced in SFF/mITX related hardware/applications.
