The reviewed MSI board definitely has 2 USB3 ports at back panel. Just look at photos in the review. Model number is really strange. Probably it was a prepoduction sample or some special OEM version.
And disabled wi-fi doesn't consume much.
As for 2100T 2x power consumption at full load and 2,5W more consumption at idle is already a good result. Why are you expecting that it can be even better?
