      Are there more issues with heat with the smaller boards? Also what are the expansion slots used for?

      Definitely, way more of an issue. It's what keeps boards so often so big.

      Boards and cases - or the need for loud fans when the cases are small.

        Do small scale motherboards exist in smart phones?

          Yes. Tiny things, but they exist. You should either grab an old phone and take it apart or see if someone will donate one to the cause.

            Not really. Heat issues are almost exclusively related to the CPU and GPU any more. Memory just a little. Almost no other component gets hot.

            So heat dissipation is needed for those 3 things. That has little to do with the board size.

                That is not the board. The board does not cool those devices. Well heat radiates, so anything touching them cools it to a minor degree, but that does not affect anything to any degree that matters.

                Most memory run cool enough that direct air over the chips suffices.

                CPU and GPU need a heatsink and sometimes a fan to push air over the heatsink.

                  Frequently small mobos also mean small cases, these small cases can run into issues of lack of airflow... but really, the issue isn't the size of the mobo, but other things.

                    Mostly, yes. Although you have less board space for cooling, too. Giant server boards have room for front to back high volume airflow, for example.

                      Again, the board has zero to do with it. The case has everything to do with it. Granted, typically, small boards equal small cases, but this is in no way a requirement.
