MSI B760MPOWER Motherboard Features BCLK Generator and 8000+ MT/s DDR5 OC Support

MSI is expanding its acclaimed MPOWER series with a new addition to the Intel lineup, the B760MPOWER, a compact mATX motherboard designed to deliver strong overclocking potential at an affordable price. Following the success of last year’s Z790MPOWER and this year’s B850MPOWER for AMD platforms, MSI appears ready to bring its overclocking expertise back to Intel’s LGA 1700 platform.

The new motherboard was recently spotted by hardware leaker wxnod and is built on the B760 chipset, offering support for Intel 12th Gen (Alder Lake), 13th Gen (Raptor Lake), and 14th Gen (Raptor Lake Refresh) CPUs. Despite being a cost-effective option, the board features a robust power delivery system, dual 8-pin EPS connectors, and MSI’s signature external BCLK generator, enabling fine-tuned overclocking beyond standard chipset limits.

The MSI B760MPOWER supports up to 128 GB of DDR5 memory across two DIMM slots, with speeds reaching 8000+ MT/s, making it one of the most capable B760 motherboards for memory overclocking. The inclusion of the BCLK generator allows users to push CPU and memory performance even further — a rare feature in this price segment.

Expansion options include:

• 1 PCIe 5.0 x16 slot for GPUs

• 1 PCIe 4.0 x4 slot

• 1 PCIe 3.0 x1 slot

• 2 M.2 Gen4x4 slots (one with M.2 Shield Frozr heatsink)

• 6 SATA III ports for additional storage

Rear I/O on the MSI B760MPOWER includes a strong selection of USB options:

• 1x USB 20 Gbps (Type-C)

• 4x USB 10 Gbps (3 Type-A + 1 Type-C)

• 2x USB 5 Gbps (Type-A)

• 8x USB 2.0 ports

Networking and audio are handled by a 2.5 GbE LAN port and an 8-channel HD audio solution, ensuring reliable connectivity and high-fidelity sound. Cooling-wise, the motherboard features MSI’s extended VRM heatsink design, keeping temperatures under control during heavy overclocking sessions.

With its solid balance of features, power design, and overclocking flexibility, the MSI B760MPOWER is shaping up to be a compelling choice for budget-conscious enthusiasts looking to experiment with Intel overclocking on the LGA 1700 socket. Pricing is expected to be under $200 USD, making it one of the most affordable yet capable options for tuning memory and CPU performance.

More details regarding pricing, regional availability, and release timing are expected soon.

 
Would you consider the MSI B760MPOWER for a budget overclocking build, or would you prefer investing in a higher-end Z790 motherboard instead?
