MSI PRO Z890-A WIFI Overview
Power up your workflow by including the MSI PRO Z890-A WIFI LGA 1851 ATX Motherboard in your computer build. Supporting Intel Core Ultra series 2 desktop processors with the LGA 1851 socket, professional content creators can outfit this motherboard to smoothly handle demanding applications and AI workloads.
Designed to help simplify builds, MSI’s EZ technology makes it easy to install one M.2 PCIe 5.0 and three PCIe 4.0 SSDs to store your applications and important files. There are also four SATA III connectors available alongside four DDR5 DIMM slots. With one PCIe 5.0 x16 slot and two PCIe 4.0 x16/x4 slots, you can install powerful graphics cards and other compatible expansions.
The rear panel features two Thunderbolt 4 ports that can transfer up to 40 Gb/s with compatible devices or connect a USB-C compatible 8K display. The one USB-C and three USB-A ports work with 10 Gb/s devices. An internal header allows you to connect a front panel 20 Gb/s USB-C port. You may use the four USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 ports with 5 Gb/s peripherals. Built-in Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) support and a 5 Gb/s Ethernet port provide you with connections to compatible network devices for smooth video streaming and fast file transfers.
MSI Game Boost enables one second overclocking, giving you the performance boost you need to get more fps.
Load-Line Calibration
What you see is what you get. LLC makes sure your CPU voltage remains 100% stable under any load. This greatly improves stability when demanding more CPU performance.
Overvoltage Protection
Prevents potential short circuit damage to the CPU and other critical components.
An extended heat sink enlarges the surface of heat dissipation and maintain the performance at heavy loads.
M.2 Shield Frozr
A strengthened M.2 thermal solution helps keep your M.2 SSD safe and ensures incredible performance.
Heavy Plated VRM Heat Sink
The VRM heat sink covers the upper MOS and helps dissipate the heat.
7W/mK Thermal Pad & Additional Choke Pad
High-quality 7W/mK MOSFET thermal pads and additional choke thermal pads ensure stable performance when all cores are running at high speed.
Enlarged Chipset Heat Sink
The enlarged heat sink is designed to reduce dust and noise and capable of maintaining high efficiency of heat dissipation.
Allows users to change the temperature curve with the 4 dots provided.
Manual Fan
Allows users to change the temperature at a set percentage.
Adjust fan settings according to the mode selected in User Scenario.
BIOS Mode
Adjust fan settings in BIOS.
Customize by User
Customize fan settings by the users.
Upgrade to Wi-Fi 7
Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) introduced higher speeds, wider channels, improved efficiency, and reduced latency over Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax). It also improved battery life and provided better performance in crowded environments.
Data Transfer Rate
The Wi-Fi 7 provides maximum speeds up to 5.8 Gb/s. 2.4 times faster than previous Wi-Fi 6/6E standards, Wi-Fi 7 is set to be the wireless standard of the future.
Channel Size
Previous Wi-Fi generations have had to make do with 160 MHz channel widths. Wi-Fi 7 brings this width up to 320 MHz (on 6 GHz), ensuring better reliability during simultaneous transmissions at max speeds.
High Order Modulation
The higher QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) value, the more data each packet can carry. Wi-Fi 7 improves the modulation scheme from 1024-QAM to 4096-QAM, boosting peak transmission rates and network capacity.
Multi-Link Operation
Wi-Fi 7 enables devices to simultaneously send and receive data across several frequency bands and channels to meet the traffic demand brought and the growing number of wireless devices.
- Automatically prioritizes games above other applications
- Allows to change applications’ traffic priority
- Allows to customize bandwidth for each application
- Analysis Wi-Fi signals to select the best source
Doubling over the previous generation, the bandwidth of an x16 interface can reach 128 GB/s.
SMT PCIe 5.0 Slot
The advanced SMT(Surface Mount Technology) PCIE slot diminishes interference and electrical noise, fully support the PCIe 5.0 signal.
Steel Armor II
Compared to the previous generation, Steel Armor II’s weight endurance has increased by 21%, ensuring excellent signal transmission quality.
Connect multiple Thunderbolt devices in a daisy chain, allowing data, power, and video signals to flow from the computer to up to five accessories.
External Storage/Docks
Thunderbolt lets gamers play large file-sized games directly from an external drive, freeing up computer storage. Creators can quickly back up large video and photo files for peace of mind. With 40 Gb/s bandwidth, Thunderbolt efficiently handles data and video, making it ideal for heavy workloads and fast file transfers.
Video Display
Rich display options: up to two 4K/60 Hz displays or one 8K/60 Hz display on a single connection.
- High-performance ALC1220P audio processor
- High-quality audio capacitors
