Seems a Huge increase from V1 4+3 Set Up.

Most likely they un-removed that second high side FET and unpaired FETs with doublers.
Meaning 8 wimpy phases.
That's far cry from B550/X570 VRMs.
Also there's marketing excrement sabotaging VRM cooling.

Unless FETs changed from original, MSI has still slight advantage in them and especially proper cooling.
Also there's no USB BIOS Flashback.

one hi and one low to a choke . 8 phases, but linked in twos with 4 doublers (though they are in short supply )

Only proper vrm cooling are ones with finned heatsink or Waterblocks . Most heatsinks are blocks, even Aorus ones, vrms used run a lot cooler .
Mother boards should really be tested naked to see how long they last for VRM design :D

I think this board is to soak up sales more then anything . X670 will be expensive , x570 will sell out , b550 still more costly then most would like over b450 .

Still a year away from having GPU IO to match Sony to get people over to PCIe 4.0
