Rules
-
Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.
-
No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.
-
All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.
-
Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

Check out the MSI PRO Z790-A MAX WIFI.
It's a refresh of PRO Z790-A WIFI prepared for 14th gen launch. The new board has WiFi7 and it seems that's the only difference.
I couldn't find any reviews on the MAX version but I'm pretty sure both of these boards have identical VRM (16 MPS MP87670 (80A) for VCore with a MPS MP2960R PWM controller).
The only issue this board may have is with I225-V ethernet controller. But there's a workaround:

I’m connecting via WiFi so shouldn’t be an issue - im looking at this bird as the way to go currently unless someone can talk me out of it.
