Dear EVGA Members
 
I am currently looking at building a Mini ITX gaming rig inside a RVZ02. I have had problems in the past with Asus who has horrible support and would like to know if the Z170 Stinger is a well made reliable board. I know it is missing some features that i will not be using but i am wondering on there reliability and build quality. 
 
I know EVGA has amazing support

    The Stinger is a solid little board, I have built a few of them for shows and whatnot.  Very stable, easy top clock.  I do not own one myself, as I tend to go big but it is solid well engineered mITX board.

    So-so I guess. I'd like to try some decent overclocks, but cannot find a way to accurately/reliably know how much voltage I'm pushing. There just isn't a lot of info out there for this board, and this forum is pretty dead. It's not like it was when years ago IMO. I also have the Stinger board, just never got around to changing my signature.

    I don't have this board, but I can vouch for their support.  It's top notch.
