Refurbished - MSI MAG Z790 TOMAHAWK WIFI

Refurbished - MSI MAG Z790 TOMAHAWK WIFI
The MSI MAG Z790 TOMAHAWK WIFI motherboard, featuring the Intel Z790 chipset and an Intel 1700 socket, provides a high-performance solution for builds with 14th, 13th and 12th generation Intel Core processors in an ATX format. The board has four slots for DDR5 memory with overclocking support up to 7200MHz, and expansion options including two PCIe x16 slots with PCIe 5.0 support and four M.2 connectors with Lightning Gen 4 x4. The board is equipped with a premium 16+1+1 phase power delivery with a 90A Smart Power Stage and dual 8-pin CPU power connectors, guaranteeing stable operation even under heavy loads.
Key features of the MSI MAG Z790 TOMAHAWK WIFI motherboard
- Support for 14th/13th/12th Gen Intel Core processors with advanced 16+1+1 phase power delivery with 90A SPS and dual 8-pin connectors with Core Boost and Memory Boost technologies
- DDR5 memory up to 7200MHz with SMT technology, 4 slots with a maximum capacity of 256GB, Intel XMP 3.0 support
- PCIe 5.0 slot with Steel Armor and SMT technology, 4 Lightning Gen 4 M.2 slots with speeds up to 64Gbps, and 7 SATA 6Gb/s ports
- Advanced cooling with an extended aluminium VRM heatsink, M.2 Shield Frozr, 7W/mK thermal pads, and a dedicated connector for water cooling
- Intel Wi-Fi 6E with speeds up to 2.4Gbps, Bluetooth 5.3, and low-latency Intel 2.5G LAN
Power and cooling for maximum performance
The Mirrored Power Arrangement, with a total of 16 phases supplying the processor core, uses 90A Smart Power Stage components which, together with dual 8-pin CPU connectors, ensure sufficient power for even the most demanding processors. The extended VRM heatsink covers the upper MOSFETs and uses high-quality 7W/mK thermal pads, including additional pads on the chokes. The board is optimised for water cooling with a dedicated water pump pin header supporting up to 3A, which gives you full control over the pump speed. Strategically placed fan connectors, including a separate pump header, make integration with MSI cooling systems easy.
Next-generation memory support and storage
Four DDR5 slots with SMT technology minimise electromagnetic interference and support overclocking up to 7200MHz, thanks to Memory Boost technology and Intel XMP 3.0 profiles. The maximum system memory capacity reaches 256GB with support for dual-controller dual-channel mode. For data storage, the board offers four M.2 slots with Lightning Gen 4 x4 support, with one M.2 slot connected directly to the processor and the others to the chipset, all capable of using the PCIe 4.0 x4 interface. Seven SATA III ports with a speed of 6Gb/s complement the storage options with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 for both SATA and NVMe devices.
Expansion slots and graphics support
Two PCIe x16 slots with an x16/x4 configuration include a primary slot with full PCIe 5.0 support connected to the processor, which uses SMT technology for a clean signal and features a reinforced Steel Armor construction with additional solder points to securely hold heavy graphics cards. The secondary PCIe x16 slot supports PCIe 4.0 x4 from the chipset. A single PCIe x1 slot with PCIe 3.0 expands the options for connecting peripherals. The processor's integrated graphics can be used via the HDMI 2.1 port.
