### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good gaming motherboard
*by T***R on 28 December 2024*

I've been using the MAG Z790 for just under a year now and I've been very happy with it without any issues. I'm not technical and you'll find other reviews providing a better technical insight but I did do a lot of research into gaming motherboards within this price point. I found that MSI came on top of other similar well known brands for it's balance of performance and features. The MSI build quality is very good, looks good, and easy to setup. I've pared mine with the following and it runs like a dream. - Intel 14700K CPU - MSI GTX 4080 super - Samsung 980 pro 2GB m.2 - CORSAIR VENGEANCE DDR5 RAM 32GB (2x16GB) 6000MHz CL30 - Corsair RM850x 80 PLUS I have had no issues so far with MAG Z790 motherboard and would highly recommend it. I would also recommend to anyone building their new rig to do research based on other reviews and comparing specs.
