MSI Implements Voltage Restrictions on AM5 Motherboards for AMD Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs

MSI has released a new BIOS for its AM5 motherboards that adds voltage restrictions for the AMD Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs after reports of ASUS motherboards burning up and killing the CPUs due to older BIOS not adding the required voltage restrictions. The latest BIOS only supports negative offset voltage settings on AMD Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs, ensuring that the CPU doesn't get damaged due to overvoltage. MSI has also introduced its Enhanced Mode Boost profile for AMD Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs, which adds more performance while reducing temps and power usage. ASUS has deleted links to all older BIOS releases for its AM5 lineup following the reports of the AMD Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs burning up.
