Intel Core i9 12900K 16-Core Processor
Revolutionary Performance and Multitasking
With the highest clock speeds and a groundbreaking new architecture, you’ll be able to push your gameplay to new heights while secondary apps run seamlessly in the background.
Divide and Conquer
Intel’s new performance hybrid architecture integrates two core families into a single CPU, keeping everything in your gaming universe running smoothly.
8 Performance-cores (the foreground): P-cores are built for performance across single and lightly-threaded workloads, enhancing activities like gaming and productivity.
8-Efficient cores (the background): E-cores are optimized for multi-threaded performance, minimizing interruptions from secondary tasks.
Intel® Thread Director: Prioritizes and manages workloads, sending tasks to the best core for the job.
Performance Beyond the Cores
The new processor architecture is also compatible with the latest platform innovations, giving you performance improvements throughout your PC.
Ready for What’s Next: Support for PCIe Gen 5 and DDR5 for high-performance components like memory and graphics.
Best-in-class Connectivity: Thunderbolt™ 4 and Intel® Killer™ Wi-Fi 6/6E (Gig+) deliver fast transfer speeds and connections to peripherals.
Streamlined Overclocking: Separate overclocking controls for both types of cores gives you nuanced personalization.
MSI MPG Z690 CARBON WIFI Motherboard
Direct 18 +1 +1 Phases Power Design
Unleash and sustain maximum performance with an aggressive VRM design built with a total of direct 18 +1+1 power phases. Combining 2x 8-pin power connectors and exclusive Core Boost technology, MPG series motherboard is ready to sustain heavy daily work.
Premium Thermal Solution for Higher Performance
MPG Z690 CARBON WIFI features heavy plated VRM heatsink, Heat-pipe, 7W/mK MOSFET thermal pads, M.2 Shield Frozr to ensure the extreme performance with low temperature.
Latest DDR5 Memory
A huge step of DDR performance enhancement with the latest DDR5 memory. Combines with dedicated SMT welding process and MSI Memory Boost technology, MPG Z690 CARBON WIFI is ready to deliver the world class memory performance.
Unmatched Memory Performance
MSI motherboards are crammed with features to fuel your system’s memory with more speed, higher overclockability and increased stability. Optimised traces and a fully isolated memory circuitry ensures perfect stability and performance, so you never have to worry about your system crashing.
Lightning Gen 5 PCI-E
MSI Lightning Gen 5 PCI-E represents the bandwidth of a x16 interface to 128GB/s, which is double of the speed of the previous generation. The advanced SMT(Surface Mount Technology) PCI-E slot diminishes the interference and electrical noise, fully supporting higher bandwidth and faster transfer speeds of PCI-E 5.0 signal.
Wi-Fi 6E & Bluetooth
Use your LAN port for online gaming while using Wi-Fi for other online applications. The Wi-Fi 6E adopts latest OFDMA, two-way MU-MIMO technologies and 6GHz band, delivering wireless transmission speeds up to 2.4Gbps.
Maximum Data Transfer with 2.5G LAN
MPG Z690 CARBON WIFI features high-bandwidth and low-latency Ethernet networks for demanding gamers and power users. Onboard 2.5Gbps connectivity provides incredible data transfer speed faster than ever before. MSI LAN Manager automatically classifies and prioritises the latency-sensitive for your applications, giving you the best online experience with low latency.
Double Bandwidth with Lightning USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 20G
Using USB 3.2 devices has never been faster! Featuring the USB 3.2 Gen2x2 controller, MSI motherboards offer never before seen USB speeds up to 20Gb/s when connecting the Rear USB Type-C. The Lightning USB 20G connectors are covered with gold to ensure a better signal and performance.
Amplify Your Experience with Audio Boost 5
Like a dedicated sound card, Audio Boost 5 offers a HD audio processor, dedicated amplifier and high-quality audio capacitors all physically isolated from the rest of the motherboard circuitry to ensure the purest audio signal to locate enemies with pin-point accuracy. Powered by ALC 4080 audio processor, this motherboard supports 120dB SNR, 32-bit/384kHz and DSD Super Audio CD playback & recording.
PCB Design
The PCB design has been optimised for higher bandwidth and faster transfer speeds, which is also beneficial for reliable circuit transmission.
Fortify Your System with PCI-E Steel Armour
MSI PCI Express Steel Armor slots are secured to the motherboard with extra solder points and support the weight of heavy graphics cards. When every advantage in games counts, Steel Armor shields the point of contact from electromagnetic interference.
