Our first MSI Z890 motherboard that has been tested is the MPG Z890 EDGE TI WIFI. This is a high-end motherboard with some solid features and a nice white design.
In the performance department, the Z890 EDGE TI WIFI offers solid performance on the CPU side, decent overclocking capabilities, and strong memory support out of the box with up to 256 GB of capacities supported and 9200 MT/s speeds. These are all great and you can expect performance to be on par with the higher-end designs. The Frozr heatsinks do a great job of keeping the VRMs, the M.2, and the Z890 PCH cool. The EZ release mechanisms for the M.2 slots are also great for DIY builders while the EZ PCIe release for the first Gen5 x16 slot is also a nice addition by MSI.
IO on the motherboard includes 17 USB ports including a Type-C on the front which supports 27W power delivery and two Thunderbolt 4 ports. There's also WIFI7 and 5 GbE LAN plus there are five M.2 slots which include a single Gen5 x4 and four Gen4 x4 slots.
