OPTIMIZED PCB SOLUTION
The PCB design of MSI Mag Z890 Tomahawk WiFi has been optimized for higher bandwidth and faster transfer speeds, which is also beneficial for reliable circuit transmission.
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, MSI Mag Z890 Tomahawk WiFi is ready to deliver the world-class memory performance.
Memory Extension Mode
Memory Extension Mode provides optimized memory parameters for enhanced capability at the same frequency in MSI Mag Z890 Tomahawk WiFi, achieving lower latency and higher performance. Furthermore, Memory Extension Mode can combine XMP profiles to maximize memory frequency, enabling users to effortlessly discover the best configuration based on their requirements.
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 with MSI Mag Z890 Tomahawk WiFi.
solid pin design
The 4-pin, 8-pin, and 24-pin power connectors of MSI Mag Z890 Tomahawk WiFi motherboards are all designed with solid pins. The solid pin design allows for a more stable transmission of 12V power to the CPU, even when handling high current loads.
Anti-corrosive Stainless Steel IO Shield
An extra layer of sponge materials along with corrosive resistance IO Shield to help improve static electricity and reduce electromagnetic radiation noise from the system as well as much more durable compare to traditional IO Shields.
Over Current Protection
MSI Mag Z890 Tomahawk WiFi motherboards prioritize safety with the embedded Overcurrent Protection (OCP), ensuring crucial components such as the USB ports, DDR memory, PWM IC, and CPU are shielded from excessive current. This proactive defense mechanism curtails the risk of damage or malfunction due to power surges, promoting long-term system stability. This commitment to safeguarding your hardware underscores MSI’s dedication to producing motherboards that prioritize durability and stability.
The Grounding Structure of Power Phases
The grounding structure of power phases is the MSI Mag Z890 Tomahawk WiFi’s exclusive design. This patented design enables to suppress the electromagnetic interference (EMI) generated by the power phases and helps to efficiently conduct heat to the copper plane with grounding properties.
