Hey there, I'm looking to upgrade my mini ITX board for the i7-6700K. The only options I found on Newegg or Canadian sites with an M.2 slot are Asus or Gigabyte models. Right now I'm using an Asus Z170A ATX board that's running the CPU at its default speed. Since I can't overclock it, it's a bit disappointing. I saw an Asus Z170i mini ITX but it seems like it would cost around $400 after taxes and shipping—probably not worth it. Any issues or challenges I might face during the switch? Let me know!

Ebay offers decent items, though much of it comes from China with high fees and shipping costs. I’d prefer purchasing new instead.

Only eBay offers a good range of items. I was curious about the reliability of sellers there. I’ve usually doubted eBay sellers.
