Socket LGA 1200 Z590 motherboard

The MSI MPG Z590 GAMING PLUS is an ATX motherboard built around the Intel Z590 chipset. It accepts 10th and 11th Gen Intel Core processors as well as Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs in an LGA 1200 socket. Four DDR4 slots support up to 128 GB of memory in dual-channel mode.

Ideal for 10th or 11th Gen Intel builds

This board suits builders pairing a 10th or 11th Gen Intel CPU with DDR4 memory and multiple SATA drives. It is not suitable for newer 12th Gen or later Intel processors, which require a different socket and chipset.

PCIe 4.0 x16 slot requires an 11th Gen CPU

The single PCI Express 4.0 x16 slot and the primary M.2 slot are wired from the CPU and only operate at 4.0 speeds when an 11th Gen processor is installed. With a 10th Gen CPU those connections fall back to PCIe 3.0.

Questions about this item

Will this board work with my 11th Gen Intel Core i7 processor?

Yes, the LGA 1200 socket and Z590 chipset support both 11th and 10th Gen Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron CPUs.

Can I install four 32 GB DDR4 modules to reach 128 GB?

The board has four 288-pin DDR4 slots and a maximum capacity of 128 GB, so four 32 GB sticks will work.

If I use an 11th Gen CPU, can I run a PCIe 4.0 M.2 drive in the top slot?

The M2_1 slot connects to the CPU and supports PCIe 4.0 x4 with 11th Gen processors; it is unavailable with 10th Gen chips.
