Inconvenients of a mini-ITX gaming build?

[x47]

I am giving a thought on how to build my next not-too-high-end gaming pc. And I came across with a lot of interesting mini-ITX builds that migth serve me as an inspiration. So, Is there any major issue or limitation that a mini-ITX build has when comparing it to p.e a micro-ATX build?

Any opinion is apreciated.

Only size and heat.

But those are good for high-mid builds. i wouldn't put a R9 390X, but a R9 380 or GTX 960 will be great.

The only limitations you have for mITX builds are you only have one PCIe slot for add-on/graphics cards, 2 RAM slots (actually varies depending on manufacturer) and heatsink and sizing limitations (depending on the case)

Also there's price. Getting some of the sfx things like powersupplies or heatsinks might get a little up there compared to a m-atx build. Kind of like how I wished I went with the Bitfenix Prodigy M instead so I could've done sli 970's. Make sure you plan out ALL the things if you do decide to build one because it helps a lot.
