Epic specification, very robust..

MSI are undisputably one of the best manufacturers out there for gaming/high performance motherboards, the MEG Z690 Unify does not fail to meet these expectations, if anything exceeding them slightly, for me personally.With its 12-layer PCB, it packs quite the heft, and feels very sturdy in hand, plenty of options for expansion with its 5 m.2 slots and indeed SLi/Crossfire compatible those die-hard gamers.The specification is very impressive for the price, it's definitely well suited to gamers or those who want a clutter-free experience in the case.Personally paired mine with an i9 12900ks and 32GB ddr5-6000 Corsair Vengeance CL36 ram, I'm Incredibly impressed, despite the steep learning curve with DDR5 vs previous generations, it's worth the time and efforts to get right.I won't deny it initially took a fair bit of tweaking settings to get XMP to run stable 24/7, but I'm inclined to put this down to the choice of memory rather than the motherboard itself.Overall, well worth the price paid (on offer at 30% off at time of purchase), very good build quality with heatsinks galore, including for all 5 m.2 slots. Subtle but industrious looking styling, it's a winner in my book.It should be noted the motherboard has no provision for integrated graphics and thus a dedicated GPU will be required, but then, given the target audience, this shouldn't be a problem for anyone looking to buy this particular board.Thunderbolt (USB4) support out the box, WiFi6 & BT with plenty of expansion for more than the already generous supply of USB3 ports upon the rear I/O. The 'Pros' are near endless.Multiple vendor ARGB support and headers for a total of 8 fans make cooling and lighting a breeze.Lack of paper manual included in the box was slightly frustrating and perhaps the only 'Con' i could make, given the caliber of the hardware, but then, it wasn't difficult to download the PDF and in fairness the paper saved is arguably quite environmentally conscious given I will likely never need to use the manual again throughout the lifetime of the product.

Solid Well Priced Z690 DDR5 Motherboard with Intel Networking

Great board, solid performance and features for the money. Nice to see MSI using Intel networking chipsets for both wired and wireless connections rather than problematic Realtek stuff.Well laid out board with plenty of connections for fans, RGB and front mounted USB-C. The BIOS while not as fine tuned as some is perfectly serviceable and easy to use.After using the board for a short while I'm pleased with my purchase.

Great for a first build!

Easy to install and to add all the various components to. Everything is well labelled and spaced out well.The heat sinks definitely help too. The heat sinks make it slightly bulky around the CPU connections, but that’s to be expected. WiFi works, haven’t properly tested as I use Ethernet, and Bluetooth was a bit flakey but maybe it was just an Xbox controller thing.

Looks Good and Offers Stability

The Tomahawk looks good, has decent I/O and has 4 m.2 slots.More importantly it has an excellent Vrm for cooling and power delivery for stability. The Bios offer every setting you could ever need to get the most out of your hardware.

Best features for the price!

I shopped around for a motherboard that had the features I was looking for at a reasonable price. I came across this motherboard which had everything, WiFi 6e, 2.5G ethernet ports and 3 PCIe Gen 4.0 M2 slots for high speeds NVMe drives and a 4th PCIe Gen 3.0 slot !Using this with my intel i91200K, 32GB DDR5 Ram and a MSI Mech X2 6600 GPU and haven't had any issues at all. Using the MSI Center app on Windows 11 and the Frozr AI cooling system, my PC has been running smooth without issue since I built it in April !Would highly recommend this Motherboard to anyone looking to build a 12gen intel system ! For the price you can't fault it !

Great choice for Z690

This is very solid choice when it comes to Z690 motherboards.Stability is spot on - no problems with my 5600MHz Corsair DDR5 and Intel 12700KF. The three M.2 PCIe4 drives I have installed run very fast and cool.There is a wide variety of I/O, with 20Gbps USB available both front and back as well as many 10Gbps ports.The all black aesthetic with no RGB whatsoever looks great as I often find that RGB on a motherboard can clash with RGB on other devices in the case.

Didn't work, returned

First of all, I'm a big, big MSI fan so it hurts to write this review. I bought the motherboard as part of my regular upgrade plan and was particularly looking forward to upgrading to DDR5.sadly, after switching to the new motherboard, it wasn't receiving any power. Doublechecked the new PSU and connector cables. Switched back to the old mother board - no problems. Switched again and the new MB still wasn't getting power. A quick search online and I found that this issue was fairly commonplace - if it's a known problem then MSI should really remove it from sale.I've now RTA'd the motherboard and will go for the more expensive "Carbon" once I get the refund

MSI Z690 Motherboard

Wanted to get the benefit of faster bus speeds for my gaming PC. This M/B is compatible with 13 Gen CPUs with a BIOS update.

Great product

I've decided to mount my own gaming PC, so I've searched for compatible items with good prices.In my case I was looking for an i7, a graphic card Wich could be at least an 3060 and 32gb of ram, SSD, nvme, etc.In this case the motherboard was surprisingly good, it has so many slots for memory and future upgrades. The quality felt amazing, so I am very happy with the purchase, even after almost 1 year after using the computer for gaming, I didn't find any issue.Another good thing is that you can connect your computer by WiFi thanks to this motherboard, so if you don't want to use a DSL cable, it would be also a perfect option.

MSI UNIFY Z690

Scheda madre spettacolare per robustezza e stabilità, gestisce perfettamente in XMP delle Corsair Vengeance 6000 mhz cl16 e i7 12700K.Sicuramente saprà gestire allo stesso modo i nuovi refresh Raptor 14ª generazione.Amazon perfetta come sempre sulla spedizione.
