Mpower could not have been on anything other than intel's enthusiast chipsets because after P68 intel disabled all useful OCing on all but Z series chipsets... And at least here in the Europe the Z97 MPower retailed for around half the price of the XPower...MPower was always part of the enthusiast chipset ftr. It was never low cost. IIRC, the MPower was either 2nd or 3rd in line behind the XPower for cost?
Just because you want to get every last bit of performance OCing on your board doesn't mean you want to be able to run 4 PCIe 4.0 m.2 drives, 8 SATA drives, have 2 GPUs and a PCIe 4.0 add-in card... OCing features, VRM current capability (beyond a certain point), and extensive I/O options are separate features and the exclusion of one doesn't necessitate the exclusion of the others.
