Best wholesale supplier for mini PC motherboards?
Hey everyone, I'm looking for recommendations on the best wholesale suppliers for mini PC motherboards. My computer repair shop has been getting more requests for custom mini PC builds, and I'm finding it difficult to source reliable motherboards at a good price. I'm particularly interested in suppliers that offer decent quality, a straightforward RMA process, and competitive pricing. Any suggestions on where I can source these components would be greatly appreciated!

I highly recommend checking out ASRock's wholesale program. Their mini PC motherboards have been reliable, and the pricing is quite competitive. I've been able to get them for around $45-$65 depending on the model. They also have a pretty good RMA process, which is crucial when you're dealing with custom builds. Plus, their support is responsive, which has helped me solve issues quickly. I typically use their motherboards in most of my builds, and they integrate well with various hardware options.
Another option I've had some luck with is Newegg's B2B section. They often have sales on mini PC motherboards and can offer bulk discounts if you order enough. The quality is generally solid, but I've had some mixed experiences with their warranty claims. If you can find a motherboard that fits your needs, it might be worth trying out. Just make sure to read the reviews closely before committing to a large order.
