Intel Core i3-14100F on the ASUS Prime B760M-A D4
On the ASUS Prime B760M-A D4, the Intel Core i3-14100F runs at 26 % of the board's 223 W sustained power capacity, which puts the VRM at an estimated 55 °C and leaves clocks untouched.

Power delivery
There is real headroom here. The ASUS Prime B760M-A D4 is rated for roughly 223 W of continuous core power and the Intel Core i3-14100F draws 58 W once a ten-minute render settles, so the power stages spend their time well inside their comfortable range. An estimated 55 °C is the kind of VRM temperature that never appears in a log, and the board will not be the reason a benchmark run finishes slower than it started.
Counting only the stages that feed the core rail — 6 of them at 50 A, teamed in pairs off a shared controller channel — and derating for a thin heatsink that helps at idle more than under load, the ASUS Prime B760M-A D4 holds roughly 223 W indefinitely. The Intel Core i3-14100F asks for 58 W of that, and at boost it can reach 110 W.
Buy it on the rest of the specification rather than on power delivery, because at 26 % of capacity the VRM has stopped being the interesting variable. Count the M.2 slots you need, check the rear ports against what you actually plug in, and let the ASUS Prime B760M-A D4's 6 stages get on with it.
Note: PCIe 5.0 from the CPU runs at 4.0 speeds here
The Intel Core i3-14100F provides PCIe 5.0 lanes but the ASUS Prime B760M-A D4 wires its slots for PCIe 4.0. Nothing stops working; a Gen 5 SSD simply runs at Gen 4 speed, which no game notices.
