Description
- MSI Z490-A PRO motherboard supports 10th Generation Intel Core, Pentium Gold and Celeron Processors for LGA 1200 socket. Featuring stable functionality and high-quality assembly, PRO series motherboards provide not only optimized professional workflows but also less troubleshooting and longevity.
- A dedicated water pump PIN header supports up to 2 amp, giving you full control of the water pump speed. A clearly marked ‘keep-out-zone’ allows for easy and safe installation and a perfect fit. Total Fan Control allows you check your primary system characteristics in a simplified graphical interface.
- MSI PCI Express Steel Armor slots are secured to the motherboard with extra solder points and support the weight of heavy graphics cards. Double ESD protection doubles up the grounding layer around the mounting holes, preventing static discharge surges from damaging the motherboard.
- MSI PRO series motherboards offer a wide variety of options to connect and boost your USB devices, delivering 10Gbps transferring speed by both USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A and Type-C. 2.5Gbps LAN provides incredible data transfer speed faster than general Gigabit LAN.
