Everybody keeps saying to stay away from the Intel 13 & 14 gen cpus though. And that this mobo won't support anything much better since it's the end of a cycle. So...should probably stay away from this deal if ever looking to upgrade in a few years?
Also, 750W PS seems a little light for this setup? The others that are similar seem to have 850 or 1000.

Yes, if you want to upgrade the CPU, it would make sense for Intel to wait for the LGA 1851 socket.
AMD will continue to support AM5 for quite some time.
If the problem occurs with the CPUs, it should be covered under warranty for the time being.
I wouldn't touch a 13th or 14th gen Intel with a 10 foot pole right now. For the price and the investment you're making, it's not worth the headache or hassle with these faulty chips. Seems like every few months they're finding new issues (oxidizing, wrong voltage, etc.). If Intel doesn't recall them, then you can't trust them.

How are these MSI pre-built computers?
