MSI B760M Gaming Plus WiFi: A cheap motherboard with a surprise

Metro Exodus

V testoch sme sa venovali základnej doske Mini-ITX. Nad tento formát sa zvykne v súvislosti s výkonnými procesormi dávať varovný prst, ale často neopodstatnene. To by bolo dokonca aj v prípade jedného z najlacnejších modelov pre platformu LGA 1700 – B760I Aorus Pro DDR4. „Odrezané“ je predovšetkým to, čo nemusíte potrebovať napríklad preto, že väčší počet slotov nielenže nevyužijete, ale ani nezapadá do vízie priestorovo úspornej PC zostavy.

Some GeForce RTX 5090 fight melty connectors with thermal pads

Test: MSI Z890 Ace (and CU9 285K) with CoreLiquid I360 cooler

What would be the results of standard motherboard tests if we used the MSI MAG CoreLiquid I360 cooler with them? Better. Specifically, lower temperatures would be achieved for the CPU cores, which would then run at higher clock speeds, which naturally means higher computing performance. Not dramatically, but if we are to illustrate the situation with plates of scales, their position is quite clear. Read more “Test: MSI Z890 Ace (and CU9 285K) with CoreLiquid I360 cooler” »

MSI MEG Z890 Ace: 28 phases for Arrow Lake CPUs and…

Extremely robust power delivery, 10-gigabit ethernet, a huge number of USB ports and more – that’s what comes with one of the most feature-packed LGA 1851 platform motherboards, the MSI MEG Z890 Ace.
