Micro-ATX Z790 board with Wi-Fi 6E

The MSI Z790M GAMING PLUS WIFI is a micro-ATX motherboard built on the Intel Z790 chipset for LGA 1700 processors. It includes integrated Wi-Fi 6E and a 2.5G LAN controller for wired networking. The board supports DDR5 memory in dual-channel mode and provides three M.2 connectors for storage expansion.

Gamers wanting DDR5 and triple M.2 on a compact

This board suits builders who need a smaller form factor with high-speed wireless networking, 2.5G wired LAN, and three M.2 slots for fast storage. Buyers who require more than three M.2 connectors or additional full-length PCIe slots should consider a full-size ATX alternative.

Three M.2 connectors for storage expansion

The motherboard offers three M.2 connectors, each covered by an M.2 Shield Frozr heatsink. This number determines how many direct-attached drives can be installed without add-in cards. Check your storage needs against this limit before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 12+1+1 Duet Rail Power System with P-PAK generate during extended use?

The board uses an extended heatsink with MOSFET thermal pads rated for 7W/mK and additional choke thermal pads to manage heat from the 12+1+1 Duet Rail Power System during non-stop gaming.

What memory must I already have to use the DDR5 slots on this Z790 board?

You need DDR5 memory modules; the board supports dual-channel DDR5 up to 6800+ MHz (OC) and has four slots for Intel Core 14th, 13th and 12th Gen processors.

Can I keep my PCIe 4.0 graphics card and M.2 drives when upgrading to this board?

Yes, the PCIe 5.0 slot and triple M.2 connectors are backward compatible, so your existing PCIe 4.0 graphics card and M.2 drives will function at their rated speeds.
