A powerful, affordable mid-range contender for a new 14th Gen system.
The MSI MAG Z790 Tomahawk Max WiFi is an excellent $300 offering. Its powerful VRM, I/O potential and storage capabilities make it one to strongly consider. However, the competition is tough in this price range.Our experienced team dedicates many hours to every review, to really get to the heart of what matters most to you.. To use MSI's MAG nomenclature, Tomahawks sit in the middle of MSI's product stack, above the entry level gaming oriented MPG range and below the high end MEG range.
The Tomahawk Max WiFi comes with a well balanced feature set. Its four memory slots support speeds of 7800MHz+. Dual rank modules are supported at 6600MHz+ while a full 192GB complement of four dual rank modules can run at 5600MHz+. That's a big upgrade over the support offered by first generation LGA 1700 boards and it's a good advertisement for the capabilities of 14th Gen processors.The Tomahawk Max WiFi's storage spec is very good. It supports up to four M.
A strong VRM isn't of much use if the heatsinks are weak, and they aren't. Though they don't have the huge surface area of high end or finned designs, they functioned perfectly well in my testing.The rear I/O of the Tomahawk Max WiFi is a real highlight. There are a total of ten USB ports, made up of a single 20Gbps Type-C port, five 10Gbps ports , plus four 5Gbps ports. MSI includes a CMOS clear and BIOS flashback buttons.
MSI's BIOS has changed little since the introduction of its first UEFI, and why should it? The basic settings are easy to find, while it's advanced mode contains well labeled and easy to navigate sub-menus. Is it overdue for a new skin or a layout change? Maybe, but my thinking with BIOS layouts is simple. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.The Z790 Tomahawk Max WiFi includes four M.
