MSI is set to offer all early adopters of the new 14th-gen Intel Core S-Series desktop CPUs a chance to pair them with the latest Z790 MAX motherboards.
Consisting of the MEG, MPG, MAG, and PRO families, these motherboards are designed to handle even the most toasty and powerful Core i9-14900K, which can reach impressive speeds of up to 6GHz. This is made possible by the robust power delivery solution, efficient VRM cooling, and top-tier circuitry.
In line with competitors, each board in the Z790 MAX series will introduce WiFi 7 support, delivering blazing speeds of up to 5.8Gbps. This is achieved by doubling the bandwidth from 160MHz to 320MHz and enhancing Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) from 1024 to 4096, ensuring peak transmission rates.
Moreover, these motherboards come equipped with PCIe 5.0 connections for both the GPU and M.2 SSDs, guaranteeing the fastest data transfer speeds possible. For M.2 SSDs, the M.2 Shield Frozr passively cools the drive, while the EZ M.2 Clip guns for tool-less installation of your precious boot drive.
As an added bonus, purchasers of the MPG Z790 CARBON MAX WIFI will receive a USB 4. PD100W Expansion Card. This card features a 1x PCIe 4.0 x4 interface for 2x USB 4 and 2 DP 1.4 ports, capable of delivering 100W of charging for compatible devices, as the name suggests.
