MSI Z790 GODLIKE Overview

Designed to leverage 12th and 13th Gen Intel processors, the MSI MEG Z790 GODLIKE LGA 1700 E-ATX Motherboard efficiently drives power to the rest of your system, enabling gaming enthusiasts to utilize the full potential of high-end components.

Equip your rig with your choice of Intel 12th and 13th Gen processors with the LGA 1700 socket, giving you a stable platform across the rest of the motherboard's Z790 chipset. Four DDR5 RAM slots allow you to install up to 128GB of memory for greater multitasking and rendering efficiency. With six SATA III and seven M.2 PCIe interfaces, you can create a massive library of games, video captures, and even assets for video editing. Install a wide range of graphics and utility cards with one PCIe 5.0 x16 and one PCIe 5.0 x16 (in x8 mode) slots that enable NVIDIA and AMD multi-GPU configurations. Between the back panel and internal connectors, you get access to various USB 3.2 Gen 1, Gen 2, and Gen 2x2 Type-A and Type-C ports designed to support high-powered devices, displays, and more. Bluetooth 5.3 peripheral support allows you to connect devices wirelessly for a true cable-free experience. Wi-Fi 6E technology allows you to upload files and download important assets over a wireless network. Dual 2.5 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports allow you to increase your bandwidth for an accelerated wired network connection essential for high-tier competitive titles and uploading pro resolution videos efficiently. The MEG Z790 GODLIKE supports Windows 10 and 11 operating systems.

Hardware Design
Designed to make the most out of Intel's 12th and 13th Gen processors, the MEG Z790 GODLIKE features a server-grade 8-layer PCB constructed from 2 oz thickened copper internals, two reliable 8-pin CPU power connectors, PCIe Steel Armor slots, Digital PWM, 105A Smart Power Stage, and 24+2+1 power layout to ensure electrical throughput suitable for handling high-powered components. Reset Computer, Safe Boot, Turbo Fan, and EZ LED control with just one click of the back panel's Smart Button. Audio Boost 5 HD: Ultimate audio solution with latest premium ALC4082 audio processor combining ESS audio DAC and amplifier deliver an immersive experience.
Cooling Capabilities
To properly maintain thermal performance across your entire system, the MEG Z790 GODLIKE utilizes wavy fin design, Direct-Touch Cross heat pipe, and an aluminum cover that efficiently dissipates heat. High-quality 7W/mK MOSFET thermal pads and baseplate work together to decrease heat buildup around the capacitors for better heat transference.
Enhanced M.2 Design
Eight M.2 PCIe SSD interfaces allow you to create a massive array of storage for your games and media. A double-sided M.2 Shield Frozr thermal solution is designed to keep your M.2 storage drives safe, prolonging the lifespan of your files and installed systems. The screwless M.2 patented design allows you to set your M.2 and Shield Frozr without the annoying screws. The dedicated magnetic connectors are placed on PCB and M.2 Shield Frozr.
M-Vision Dashboard
The touchable 4.5-inch full-color IPS LCD M-Vision Dashboard not only indicates the status of your gaming rig which combines hardware monitor and debug function, but also allows system operation and customization with touch control. A built-in speaker provides you with audible notifications. A hidden magnet enables you to secure the M-Vision Dashboard to your case or other metallic surface.
Connectivity
Dual Thunderbolt 4 ports are found on the back panel of the motherboard, giving you instant access for high-powered devices by offering up to 40 Gb/s data transfer speeds, DisplayPort video out, and Power Delivery so you can support a wide range of devices with just a single cable. USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports give you data transfer speeds up to 10 Gb/s, which can support a wide range of devices from your standard keyboard and mice peripherals to external storage drives, audio interfaces, and more.
