One of the top motherboards with an Intel LGA 1200 processor socket based on the flagship Intel Z490 chipset. Refers to 2020 MSI Enthusiast Gaming product line. Supports 2/4/6/8/10-core 10th generation Intel Core i9/i7/i5/i3, Pentium and Celeron processors with Comet Lake microarchitecture (14nm). Designed to create high-performance gaming and overclocking premium configurations, including multiGPU systems based on 2-Way Nvidia SLI and 3-Way AMD CrossFire technologies.
First of all, it will be of interest to enthusiasts who can get maximum performance due to fine manual tuning of equipment operation parameters. The MSI MEG Z490 UNIFY motherboard is equipped with a heavy duty 17-phase power subsystem with heatsinks for better stability when working in overclocking mode. With a POST indicator, Power, Reset, Flash BIOS and Clear CMOS buttons, this model is well suited for outdoor bench work and performant benchmarking sessions. Allows connection of up to three high-speed M.2 SSD drives (aluminium heatsinks are provided). Supports up to 128 GB of DDR4 RAM, which is enough for gaming, streaming, as well as solving any domestic and professional tasks. The processing of network traffic with minimal latency is provided by a 2.5GbE Realtek 8125B adapter and a high-speed Wi-Fi 6 (802.11n/ac/ax) module.
