the bigger the motor the smoother the operation at high microsteps with plenty of torque
if money is not the issue here i'd build it with nema34 880 oz/in and never worry about low torque
most builds on the zx45 like mine use 880 on z and x and 1600 on z. i went with 1600 on z and x and 4200 on z and i'm so happy i spent the extra money.
I always try to tell people how to build the most for the least but if you can afford it go bigger.
its like a 1/2hp saw compared to a 5hp saw
