Five Z87 Motherboards For Your Mini-ITX Build, Reviewed
Nov 24, 2013 - in Articles > Gigabyte
EVGA Z87 Stinger While most of its competitors scrambled to find room to retain all of the Z87 Express PCH's natively-supported features using a mini-ITX form factor, EVGA made space for power and reset buttons, plus a dual-digit system status display
The Mini-ITX Market Is Small, But Growing... on the market, and five of the industry’s top performance-oriented brands sent us a sample to compare. LGA 1150-Based Mini-ITX Motherboard Features ASRock Z87E-ITX Asus Z87I-Deluxe EVGA Z87 Stinger Gigabyte Z87N-WiFi MSI Z

Z87 Stinger Software Equipped with Creative’s Core3D audio processor, the Z87 Stinger features the same audio control interface as the previously-reviewed M8 mini PC, with one exception: there are no digital inputs in its mixer panel. EVGA E
Z87 Stinger Firmware -enable on-board graphics. Pulling the battery with the power disconnected and allowing it to drain down for several hours didn’t solve the issue, nor did changing the CPU or graphics card. Even EVGA’s own GeForce GTX 760 in our lab didn’t solve this show
Results: SiSoftware Sandra Gigabyte’s small lead in Sandra's Arithmetic module appears strange, especially since we locked the board in at an exact 100 MHz base clock and made sure that its full range of Turbo Boost ratios were represented at various loads. EVGA
Results: Audio And Video Encoding We try not to worry about one-second differences in these benchmarks, since very small absolute values can cause rounding errors anyway. However, the two-second delta between ASRock's and EVGA's samples in Lame is at least noteworthy
Results: Adobe Creative Suite EVGA’s Z87 Stinger takes a few more small victories in Adobe Creative Suite. This is the same board that had trouble in a couple of our synthetics, so the company is obviously doing something different.
Results: Productivity MSI's Z87I slightly leads in 3ds Max and ABBY FineReader, but again by an amount that you’d probably need a performance chart to recognize. EVGA’s Z87 Stinger sweeps Visual Studio by a similar margin.
Energy, Heat, And Efficiency The Z87E-ITX puts ASRock in the lead for lowest idle power consumption, while EVGA registers the highest idle and lowest full-load power numbers. Inconsistent Turbo Boost behavior could explain the small leads in a few benchmarks, though
Which Mini-ITX Motherboard Would We Buy For Haswell? -up, so they both receive our recognition. At the other end of the pricing scale, EVGA’s Z87 Stinger includes fewer features and sells at a higher price. This leaves Asus and ASRock competing for best-of-the-best status. Both boards
