If you’ve noticed some odd behavior on your computer recently, especially if you’re using Intel’s 13th or 14th generation Core processors, you’re not alone. MSI has taken action to address this issue by releasing a new BIOS update for 700 and 600 series motherboards. So, has the problem been resolved? The details are in our report…

• MEG Z790 ACE MAX
• MPG Z790 CARBON MAX WIFI II
