Invest in MSI MEG Z790 ACE DDR5?  – PC perspective

Written By Adarsh Shankar Jha

It is AZ $700 Board

The current generation of motherboards come with impressive prices, regardless of whether you buy AMD or Intel. The MSI MEG Z790 ACE DDR5 is no exception to this, its $700 price is lower than the Godlike but almost double the price of other DDR4-based Z790s. This cost is partly due to the power system, it has a Duet Rail power system with a 24+1+2 design and 105A VRM. This should keep the power-hungry Raptor Lake satisfied in almost any foreseeable scenario.

The board also gives you five M.2 slots and three PCIe 16x slots of which one is PCIe 5.0, no short slots at all on the MSI MEG Z790 ACE. On the backplate there’s a great selection of options, including two Type-C Thunderbolt 4 ports, one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port and two 2.5GbE ports, as well as a variety of legacy USB and mini-DP.

As for performance, Guru3D describes it as “one of the fastest platforms we’ve used with the 13900K“. If you’re willing to pay the price, MSI’s MEG Z790 ACE won’t disappoint.
