Z790 DARK K|NGP|N

Part No:121-RL-E799-KR

INTRODUCTION

The EVGA Z790 DARK K|NGP|N rises once again. Built on a 14-layer low-loss PCB witha 21-phase VRM – this board will squeeze everything out of 13th Gen Intel® Core™
processors. This board supports up to 64GB DDR5 and up to 8000MHz+(OC)*, PCIe
Gen5, and PCIe Gen4 M.2 NVMe support. The Z790 DARK K|NGP|N auto-switches thex16 PCIe Gen 5 CPU lanes between slots 1 and 2 to give your PCIe device maximum
bandwidth no matter where it’s installed**. This board also includes 10Gbps and2.5Gbps NICs + Wi-Fi 6E / BT 5.2, 7.1 HD audio, 3x M.2 Key-M slots, and 2x pumpheaders for CPU AIO. The Z790 DARK K|NGP|N remains the choice of those that wanta board capable of unbelievable performance.
* Achievable speeds may vary depending on memory configuration and CPU memory controller.
** x16 lane support if only one PCIe slot (PE1/PE2) is populated. x8/x8 lanes if both PE1 and PE2 are populated.
