ASRock Z790M PG Lightning/D4 WiFi LGA1700 mATX Motherboard

The ASRock Z790M PG Lightning/D4 is a Micro ATX motherboard based on the Intel Z790 chipset, designed for 12th, 13th, and 14th Generation Intel Core processors using the LGA1700 socket. Its 10+1+1 phase Dr.MOS power design delivers stable voltage to the CPU, supporting consistent performance during demanding tasks. This motherboard utilizes four DDR4 DIMM slots, accommodating up to 128GB of dual-channel memory with overclocked speeds rated for 5333+ MHz. This design offers a platform for system builders looking to pair a modern Intel CPU with existing or new DDR4 memory kits.

For expansion and storage, the board is equipped with a primary steel-reinforced PCIe 4.0 x16 slot for a graphics card, one PCIe 3.0 x16 slot, and one PCIe 3.0 x1 slot. Storage connectivity includes two Hyper M.2 slots for high-speed PCIe Gen4x4 NVMe SSDs and four SATA III ports, with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 configurations. The rear I/O panel provides a range of connections, including USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A and Type-C ports, HDMI 2.1 output, and a 1GbE LAN port.
