This week Intel released its 10th Generation Processors for the mainstream desktop platform. Along with this new family of processors comes a new socket/chipset – Intel LGA 1200 and Z490 chipset. For tech enthusiasts wanting a slice of 10th Gen, a new motherboard is necessary and choosing one can be a daunting task, especially when you consider that there are currently some 50 models available from the range of manufacturers.

As we begin this journey, today we turn to MSI for a detailed look at their MEG Z490 UNIFY. UNIFY is an option which many have been secretly crying out for, it epitomises a group which protest against the RGB movement. UNIFY boasts an all-black design which offers up a sleek and subtle approach.

While this board is aimed squarely at purists, it also seeks to climb to the top of the pack within its price-range by supplying one or two features which rival models lack. More specifically USB 3.2 Gen2x2.
