Product Overview

Absolute Simplicity

Z790 PROJECT ZERO features the back-connect design, which allows for a cleaner front view and easier cable management, showcasing the beauty of simplicity.


Cleaner Front View

The Z790 PROJECT ZERO moves the power connectors, fan connectors, and other pin headers to the back of the motherboard. This provides a cleaner and neater front view, allowing the motherboard, liquid cooler, and graphics card's aesthetic design to be fully displayed.


Back-Connect Design

Back-Connect Design: Moving the connectors to the back not only keeps the front clean but also makes connector access easier and more effortless.
Easy cable management: Eliminate the step of routing the cables from front to back to lower the difficulty of cable management.


Supports Intel Core 14th/13th/12th Gen Processors (LGA 1700)

The Z790 PROJECT ZERO motherboard supports 14th/13th/12th Gen Intel Core, Pentium Gold, and Celeron processors.


14+1+1 Phase Duet Rail Power System with 55A SPS

With its dual 8 pin power connectors and exclusive Core Boost technology, the Z790 PROJECT ZERO is able to sustain heavy CPU power loads to support system-demanding game settings.


Integrated Cooling Features

VRM Cooling: Features an extended heatsink, 7W/mK thermal pads and additional choke thermal pads for improved thermal dissipation.
PCB Cooling: Premium 6-layer printed circuit design with 2 oz. thickened copper improves heat dissipation & reliability.
SSD Cooling: M.2 Shield Frozr prevents thermal throttling.


4 x DDR5 Dual Channel (7200+ MHz OC)

Memory Boost: A fully-isolated DDR circuit delivers pure data signals for optimal gaming and overclocking performance. XMP profiles in MSI BIOS are MSI OC LAB optimized and can be easily enabled with auto power settings for optimized memory speed and stability.


1 x Fortified PCI-e 5.0 x16 Slot

MSI PCI Express Steel Armor slot are secured to the motherboard with extra solder points to support the weight of heavy graphics cards. When every advantage in games counts, Steel Armor also shields the point of contact from electromagnetic interference.


Gen4 M.2 Connectors

The Z790 PROJECT ZERO motherboard features MSI's Gen4 M.2 slots.


M.2 Shield Frozr

Even the world's fastest SSDs will automatically slow if thermal throttling firmware detects excessively high temperatures.

M.2 Shield Frozr is MSI's most advanced thermal solution, offering the best possible protection to ensure maximum SSD transfer speed performance.


Wi-Fi 7 & Bluetooth 5.4

2.5G LAN: A Realtek 2.5Gbps LAN controller delivers a premium network gaming experience.
