Mini-ITX Z790 board for 12th to 14th Gen Intel

The MSI MPG Z790I EDGE WIFI fits the LGA 1700 socket and runs Intel Core 12th, 13th and 14th generation processors plus Pentium Gold and Celeron chips. Its Mini-ITX layout suits compact builds that still want a full Z790 feature set.

128 GB dual-channel DDR5 ceiling

Four memory slots support dual-channel DDR5 up to 128 GB with JEDEC speeds from 4800 through 5600 and overclocked steps up to 8000. This capacity limit is the decisive figure when planning a high-density workstation or gaming rig.

Included I/O shield, SATA cable.

The bundle adds a rear I/O panel, one SATA cable, a replacement CMOS battery and the external antenna for the onboard wireless module. No extra brackets, fan headers or software licences are supplied.

Questions about this item

What does the 128 GB DDR5 maximum mean for a Mini-ITX build?

The board supports up to 128 GB across two DDR5 slots, so a dual-channel kit of two 64 GB modules fills the limit without needing four sticks.

How does the PCIe 5.0 x16 slot affect graphics or storage choices?

The single PCIe 5.0 x16 slot runs at full x16 bandwidth from the CPU, giving current GPUs and future add-in cards the highest throughput the platform offers.

What clearance should I check for the LGA 1700 socket on this Mini-ITX board?

The LGA 1700 socket uses the standard Intel mounting pattern, so any cooler rated for LGA 1700 will fit provided it clears the VRM heatsinks and the single PCIe slot.
