MSI MPG B650 Carbon WiFi Review
Test Setup
As always here at OC3D when there is a move to a new platform we have taken the opportunity to refresh both our test system and the things that we are using to benchmark. Naturally this means that some of our new tests will have fewer results than some of the others, but given how rapidly the market has moved forwards it’s fair to say that anything older than the last generation is going to be left in the dust. Clock speed only gets you so far after all. We’ve also rejigged our graphs a little after last time to hopefully make them more legible with less neck-ache. Don’t forget you can embiggen them.

Clock Speeds
Whenever we’re looking at a B chipset motherboard the temptation is to assume it’s just not as capable as the X or Z equivalent. The B650 Carbon has no interest in being designed down to a price though, as it’s just as able to run our Ryzen 9 7900X as any of the big boys.
