Product identity
This MSI PRO Z790-S WIFI motherboard is an ATX desktop board built around the Intel LGA 1700 socket and the Z790 chipset. It runs DDR5 memory and is intended for new system builds or upgrades that require a full-size layout.
Who this suits
Builders assembling a 12th-generation Intel Core, Pentium or Celeron platform who need DDR5 support and integrated Wi-Fi will find this board fits the requirement. Buyers who need the original I/O shield, bundled accessories or a sealed retail package should look elsewhere because the unit ships as a motherboard only.
