MAG Z790 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI is designed for gamers, providing a stable, solid, and durable foundation for their PC builds. Coming up with Wi-Fi 7 solution, 2.5G LAN, DDR5, PCIe 5.0 solutions, and exclusive M.2 Shield Frozr, it's ready for Intel® 14th Gen and 13th Gen Core processors.
TOOL-FREE M.2 INSTALLATIONIndustrial first Magnetic with patented Screwless M.2 Shield Frozr & EZ M.2 Clip provide the easiest way for M.2 Installation.
Extended HeatsinkExtended Heatsink enlarges the surface of heat dissipation, ensuring even high-end processors to run in full speed.
M.2 Shield FrozrKeeps M.2 SSDs safe while preventing throttling, making them run faster.
Heavy Plated VRM HeatsinkThe VRM heatsink covers the upper MOS and helps dissipate the heat.
7W/mK Thermal Pad &Additional Choke PadHigh quality 7W/mK MOSFET thermal pads and extra choke thermal pads ensure all cores running in high performcance.
LIGHTNING GEN 5 PCI-EDoubling over the previous generation, the bandwidth of a x16 interface can reach 128GB/s.
FAST AND FUTURE-READY STORAGEMSI MAG series motherboards support all the latest storage standards, which allows users to connect any ultra-fast storage device. Start games faster, load levels faster and have a real advantage over your enemies.
THE ISOLATED ANALOGY STRUCTURE FOR AUDIO CONNECTORSTo provide clear voice, MSI develops a unique structure – Isolated Analogy Structure. The external metal framework of the audio connectors is separated from the internal layout, which ensures the sound quality crisp.
