Wi-Fi 7 is the future of wireless connectivity. The standard isn’t even officially finalized yet, but that hasn’t stopped hardware makers from releasing both Wi-Fi 7 routers and Wi-Fi 7-capable devices. Now, if you want to put together a Wi-Fi 7-capable PC in the near future, MSI just released a few new motherboards that will offer full support for the upcoming speedy wireless standard.
MSI just released a range of Intel-compatible motherboards based on the Z790 and B760 chipsets. The star of the show, as it’s usually the case with MSI motherboards, is the MEG Z790 GODLIKE Max — MSI’s GODLIKE motherboards are usually regarded as the very best motherboards your money can buy. That one has 6 Duet Rail Power System CPU power phases. Those motherboards also have advanced VRM cooling for top-notch overclocking, PCIe Gen 5 slots and m.2 slots, and MSI’s patented screwless M.2 shield that will keep your SSD running a very, very cool life.
We also have a huge range of new motherboards belonging to MSI’s other motherboard ranges, including MPG, MAG, and the entry-level Pro series. All of these motherboards come with one improvement in common, though — they support Wi-Fi 7. This means that when the standard is inevitably out (which might or might not happen next year), your motherboard will already be ready for the future of Wi-Fi, with faster speeds and bandwidths. It offers doubled bandwidth up to 320MHz and a theoretical speed of 5.8 Gbps — which is a lot even for the fastest Internet connections out there, and will be crucial as gigabit Internet becomes more and more common.
These motherboards will become available soon, so keep an eye out at your retailer of choice. It’s worth noting that while Intel tends to switch sockets every two generations (with the current socket being available on 12th gen and 13th gen chips), 14th gen CPUs are actually rumored to stick with the LGA 1700 socket, so these motherboards might very well still be good for the next year or so, despite them launching relatively late in the usual life cycle.
