Z790 PROJECT ZERO
The Z790 PROJECT ZERO features a unique back-connect design that reduces the complexity of cable management, resulting in a neater and more aesthetically pleasing appearance for the system. It’s compatible with Intel 14th /13th/ 12th Processors, supports DDR5, and comes equipped with a 2.5G LAN and Wi-Fi 7 solution. This makes it an excellent choice among ATX motherboards.
ABSOLUTE SIMPLICITY
Z790 PROJECT ZERO moves the power connectors, fan connectors, and other pin headers to the back of the motherboard. This provides a cleaner and neater front view, allowing the motherboard, liquid cooler, and graphics card's aesthetic design to be fully displayed.
