5 Things to Know About the MSI MPG Z690 EDGE WIFI’s USB Ports

  1. No USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports The motherboard skips USB 3.2 Gen 1 entirely, jumping from four USB 2.0 ports straight to faster options.

  2. Three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports These run at 10Gbps each, so every high-speed port is at least that fast.

  3. One USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C port This Type-C port runs at 20Gbps, doubling the speed of the Type-A ports.

  4. Four USB 2.0 ports remain These are for slower peripherals like keyboards and mice, not for data transfer.

  5. Other rear I/O includes DisplayPort 1.4, Wi-Fi 6E, and Bluetooth 5.2 Five audio jacks and optical S/PDIF round out the connectivity.
