That doesn't sound like a mini-itx motherboard. It sounds like a micro-atx. I 
haven't ever seen a mini-itx board with 3 PCI slots, while that's the common 
number on micro-atx boards.

Or an Ethernet to WiFi bridge or USB2 WiFi doohickey to free up a PCI slot.

Or that. There are a few micro-atx boards with 4 PCI slots, but their on-board 
video typically sucks.
