ABSOLUTE SIMPLICITY

PRO Z890-S WIFI PZ moves the power connectors, fan connectors, and other pin headers to the back of the motherboard. This provides a cleaner and neater front view, allowing the motherboard, liquid cooler, and graphics card's aesthetic design to be fully displayed.

BUSINESS ELEGANCE

The PRO Series is tailored to professionals from all walks of life. The lineup features impressive performance and high quality, while aiming to provide users incredible experience. Users who care about productivity and efficiency can definitely count on the MSI PRO Series to assist you with multitasking and increasing efficiency.

Back-Connect Design

The PRO Z890-S WIFI PZ features a back-connect design, which relocates the motherboard power, CPU power, fan pins, SATA, and other interfaces to the back of the motherboard. This allows for simpler cable management, while also providing a cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing appearance for the system.

One Finger for EZ GPU Installation

The new EZ PCIe Clip II, located on the first slot, features the rebounding force mechanism that allows for easy removal of the graphics card by pressing the tail-like lock with one finger. Due to this exquisite design, users can uninstall the graphics cards effortlessly, even in the cramped case spaces.

12+1+1+1 DRPS POWER DESIGN

Unleash and sustain the maximum performance with a flagship VRM design built with a total of 12+1+1+1 digital power phases. With dual power connectors, PRO Z890-S WIFI PZ is ready for the challenge of high-end processors.

DDR5 MEMORY SUPPORT WITH HIGH PERFORMANCE

A huge step of DDR performance enhancement with the latest DDR5 memory. Combines with dedicated SMT welding process and MSI Memory Boost technology, PRO Z890-S WIFI is ready to deliver the world-class memory performance.

Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS)

Transient Voltage Suppressors (TVS) are safety devices used to protect against excessive voltage. All motherboard models of MSI are equipped with TVS. When the voltage abnormally rises, the TVS switches from a high-resistance state to a low-resistance state, diverting the excessive voltage to ground. This helps prevent circuit damage caused by high voltage.

DIY 2.0 – INTEGRATING WITH THE SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT

Connect and synchronize with MSI coolers and cases with strategically positioned pin-header locations including a dedicated pump-fan header.

HIGH-BANDWIDTH AND LOW-LATENCY NETWORK

MSI's premium network solution provides incredible data transfer speed for demanding users.

FAST AND FUTURE-READY STORAGE

MSI PRO series motherboards support all the latest storage standards, which allows users to connect any ultra-fast storage device. Start games faster, load levels faster and have a real advantage over your enemies.
