The Z790 PROJECT ZERO features a unique back-connect design that reduces the complexity of cable management, resulting in a neater and more aesthetically pleasing appearance for the system. It's compatible with Intel 14th /13th/ 12th Processors, supports DDR5, and comes equipped with a 2.5G LAN and Wi-Fi 7 solution. This makes it an excellent choice among ATX motherboards.

Extended Heatsink

Extended Heatsink enlarges the surface of heat dissipation, ensuring even high- end processors to run in full speed.

M.2 Shield Frozr

Keeps M.2 SSDs safe while preventing throttling, making them run faster.

Heavy Plated VRM Heatsink

The VRM heatsink covers the upper MOS and helps dissipate the heat.

7W/mK Thermal Pad & Additional Choke Pad

High quality 7W/mK MOSFET thermal pads and extra choke thermal pads ensure all cores running in high performcance.

LIGHTNING GEN 5 PCI-E

Doubling over the previous generation, the bandwidth of a x16 interface can reach 128GB/s.

SMT PCIE 5.0 SLOT

The advanced SMT(Surface Mount Technology) PCIE slot diminish interference and electrical noise, fully support the PCI-E 5.0 signal.

REINFORCED, HEAVY SOLDERED CONNECTIONS

Secure to the motherboard with extra solder points and support the weight of heavy graphics cards.

THE ISOLATED ANALOGY STRUCTURE FOR AUDIO CONNECTORS

To 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.

EXTEND YOUR RGB EXPERIENCE WITH EASE

Add more color if you want! Mystic Light Extension pin header provides an intuitive way to control additional RGB strips and other RGB peripherals added to a system, without needing a separate RGB controller.

HIGH-BANDWIDTH AND LOW-LATENCY NETWORK

MSI's premium network solution provides incredible data transfer speed for demanding users.

THE NEXT GEN WI-FI SOLUTION - WI-FI 7

Wi-Fi 7 is the latest wireless solution that takes a huge leap forward with multiple improvements to meet the traffic demand brought and the growing number of wireless devices.

Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) introduced higher speeds, wider channels, improved efficiency, and reduced latency over Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax). It also improved battery life and provided better performance in crowded environments.

The Wi-Fi 7 provides maximum speeds to a whopping 5.8 Gbps! 2.4 times faster than previous Wi-Fi 6/6E standards, Wi-Fi 7 is set to be the wireless standard of the future.

Previous Wi-Fi generations have had to make do with 160MHz channel widths. Wi-Fi 7 brings this width up to 320MHz (on 6GHz) - ensuring better reliability during simultaneous transmissions at max speeds.

The higher QAM(Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) value, the more data each packet can carry. Wi-Fi 7 improves the modulation scheme from 1024-QAM to 4096-QAM - boosting peak transmission rates and network capacity.

Wi-Fi 7 enables devices to simultaneously send and receive data across several frequency bands and channels to meet the traffic demand brought and the growing number of wireless devices.
