When building a compact main-high end system there are currently two main options for consumers, the Z87 and AMDs A88. So for this particular review as comparisons to the Stinger we have included an alternate Z87 mini-ITX, the Z87I-Pro as well as one of the better AMD boards and a high end Kaveri APU. Starting with the memory bandwidth results we see the AMD system running lower than the Intel based alternatives. EVGA score very close to the ASUS board, something which continues on SATA speed. USB favours the ASUS model however the PCIe speed is a touch higher on EVGA, in fact the Stinger leads the way on PCIe read speed. Pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8Share On
