Intel Z790 Socket 1700 MicroATX Motherboards

Motherboards based on the Intel Z790 chipset support Intel 14th, 13th and 12th generation Core processors, catering to gamers, content creators and power users. Integrated hardware and firmware security measures protect against viruses and malicious attacks, ensuring reliable and secure performance.

In addition to the 16 PCIe 5.0 and 4 PCIe 4.0 lanes in Intel Core CPUs, the Intel Z790 chipset adds a further 28 PCIe lanes (20 PCIe 4.0 and 8 PCIe 3.0) plus up to 5 USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (20Gbps) ports.

Additionally, some motherboards include Intel Killer Wi-Fi 6E (Gig+) and Intel Wi-Fi 7 (5 Gig), providing exceptional connectivity for gaming, content creation and productivity applications.

These particular motherboards are compact-size MicroATX designs, providing fewer PCIe slots than full-size ATX designs. Make sure to carefully check the specification carefully, as some models have extra features such as more I/O or better networking.
