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

The seemingly inconspicuous motherboard hides something you probably wouldn’t expect, it has both HDMI and DisplayPort video outputs doubled, in pairs. Otherwise, the B760M Gaming WiFi is an affordable solution also suitable for higher-end Intel Core processors designed for the LGA 1700 platform with DDR5 memory. Meanwhile, due to the smaller MicroATX format, you can also fit the motherboard into smaller cases.

Upozornenie: On the LGA 1700 platform, in the reduced power mode (IPL) to the long-term 125 W level, we observe lower computing performance than it was with older BIOSes since December last year. The power consumption is indeed as expected, but that’s with inefficient clock speed management. Within it, the E cores get more space (manifested by their higher clock speeds) than the P cores, for which there is not much left. This typically results in very low clock speeds (of the P cores of the test CPU model).

Test environment: We use well distributed projects BMW (510 tiles) and Classroom (2040 tiles) and the renderer Cycles. Render settings are set to None, with which all the work falls on the CPU.

Diamonds, new heatpipes and metal fans: MSI at Computex

Our Computex 2026 coverage continues with a visit to another of the four major manufacturers of mobos, but also graphics cards, cases, PSUs, peripherals, and more these days: MSI, who is also celebrating an anniversary at this year’s show—the company was founded in 1986. Their display, however, wasn’t actually all that much about looking back. Instead, there were plenty of new and interesting products to see, including in cooling technology.

MSI PSUs feature GPU Safeguard+ against 12V-2×6 cable melting

Unreliable 12V‑2×6/12VHPWR GPU power connectors have been causing trouble for years—especially on Nvidia hardware. Unfortunately, the problem remains unresolved because the company insists on pushing the connector, meaning the risk of overheating and melting cables can only be mitigated or worked around. MSI is now introducing its own attempt at such a workaround, adding a protection and early warning feature to its power supplies.

The end, or just the beginning? 100 fans in HWCooling tests

Our database now includes one hundred fans—75 in the 120 mm format and 25 models with a physical size of 140 mm. In this article, we have compiled all data into unified charts. What was once separated for clarity is now brought together again, and the commentary will also include a… look ahead regarding fan testing. But we can already reveal that there is still a lot more to come. Read more “The end, or just the beginning? 100 fans in HWCooling tests” »
