MEG Z790 GODLIKE MAX

Experience the pinnacle of innovation with the best of the best MEG Z790 GODLIKE MAX Gaming Motherboard. Its black and robust heatsink design features an embedded crystal cutting pattern within black mirrors, setting a new standard for Intel Z790 motherboards. Equipped with Wi-Fi 7, high-speed data transmission, and the groundbreaking M-Vision Dashboard, this board is engineered to unleash the gaming potential of Intel® 14th Gen and 13th Gen Core processors. Dominate competitive tournaments and immerse yourself in unrivaled performance. Step into the future of gaming with MEG Z790 GODLIKE MAX.

M-Vision Dashboard: The 4.5-inch full-color IPS touchpanel 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.

The heat dissipation module is one of the biggest contributors to keeping GODLIKE efficient and cool. The flagship and exclusive cooling solution make it unnecessary for gamers to worry about temperature problems.

The premium power solution, superior layout design, advanced PCB material and enhanced tuning parameter provide the extreme performance and long-lasting system stability without any compromise.

Onboard septuple M.2 connectors for the maximum storage performance with one Lightning Gen 5 solution.

Lightning Gen 5 M.2 solution delivers 12,311MB/s read speed and 11,507 write speed to meet the demanding hardcore users. Double-sided M.2 Shield Frozr keeps M.2 SSDs safe while preventing throttling, making them run faster. The screwless M.2 patented design allows you to set your M.2 and Shield Frozr without the annoying screws, provides the easiest way for M.2 installation. The patented magnetic M.2 Shield Frozr design enables true “wire-less” RGB function, enhances the installation process and maximizes the storage performance.

The Wi-Fi 7 provides the latest wireless communication speeds to a whooping 5.8Gbps, 2.4x times faster than the previous Wi-Fi 6 standards. Wi-Fi 7 enables devices to simultaneously send and receive data across multiple frequency bands and channels to have a much more smoother experience as the number of wireless devices increases. Onboard 10G Super LAN and 2.5G LAN deliver the best online experience without lag.

Thunderbolt 4 brings USB-C at true 40 Gb/s speeds, 8K display support, Daisy-Chaining, Multi-Port Accessory Architecture and USB 4.0 Compliant.

Take a huge step of DDR performance upgrade with the latest DDR5 memory. Combining a dedicated SMT welding process and with MSI memory boost technology, the MEG Z790 GODLIKE MAX is ready to deliver world-class memory performance.

The latest and the fastest PCI-e data transfer solution can reach 128GB/s of unidirectional transfer bandwidth of a x16 interface that has doubled compared to its previous generation. Optimized by Steel Armor design and server grade PCB, you can enjoy next-gen devices without any compromise.

Audio Boost 5 HD: Ultimate audio solution with the latest premium ALC4082 audio processor combining ESS audio DAC and amplifier deliver the breathtaking experience.
