Hello I have a MSI MPG X570 Gaming Edge WiFi arriving today and ive seen alot of reviews saying that the VRMs run hot and I should avoid. However i will not be doing any overclocking at all, I have a 3800x. Will I be ok or should I return it?

The tier list says it should be able to handle slightly more than a maxede out 3700x, so it should be fine.

It should handle it fine, though it definitely isn't the best option in the price category.

it will be fine. anything that's 12 core and around the 150A current and up will give it a rough time but this is fine.

200-230 UK. I would prefer to keep the msi x570 but just want to be 100 percent sure it will be ok.

It will handle it fine, just don't go pushing any overclocks.

I returned my gaming plus with the same issue for a MAG B550 Tomahawk. If you want to, I would highly recommend that board

Asus TUF Gaming x570 is a really good board at the price point. Easily beats the MSI Gaming Edge.
