MSI MPG B760I EDGE WIFI DDR5 Motherboard Review

MSI is one of the leading names when it comes to high-end motherboard solutions, and while we often focus on their high-end and larger ATX models, they’ve just released a pair of new mini-ITX motherboards on the popular and more affordable B760 chipset for Intel 12th and 13th Generation processors. Furthermore, this motherboard comes in two versions, allowing you to go with either DDR4 or DDR5. However, for today’s review, we have the slightly more expensive DDR5 version.
