SeekerMSI MAG Z790 Tomahawk WiFi DDR4
The MSI MAG Z790 Tomahawk WiFi DDR4 combines a decent set of features with a clean, if understated, design. It will likely appeal to gamers and content creators who don’t want anything too flashy. Overall, it packs a good amount of features into a relatively inexpensive motherboard, but the lack of DDR5 is bit disappointing.
