VRM quality varies widely by motherboard. Typically, your enthusiast-class chipsets (Z890, X870E) have the most capable power delivery components, followed by the mainstream chipsets (B860, B850) and budget-class (A620 for AMD, “H” series for Intel). On most enthusiast-class boards, you’ll see 80-110A MOSFETs, more phases, and robust heatsinks, while mainstream and budget boards typically have 50-80A MOSFETs, fewer phases, and smaller heatsinks. Entry-level motherboards, although they list support for flagship-class processors, are designed for low-power CPUs and may throttle under heavy workl
