Asrock x399 taichi and fatal1ty x399 professional gaming motherboards released for threadripper

We are still talking about new motherboards for Ryzen Threadripper processors, this time it is ASRock that could not miss the party being one of the largest manufacturers worldwide. ASRock X399 Taichi and Fatal1ty X399 Professional Gaming are the two bets of this manufacturer to conquer future users of AMD's TR4 socket.

ASRock X399 Taichi

First of all we have the ASRock X399 Taichi which is the simpler model of the two. Among its most important features we find a powerful VRM system consisting of 11 DIGI Power supply phases that promise great power and stability, this VRM is cooled by two large copper heatsinks joined by a copper heatpipe.

The TR4 socket is surrounded by a total of eight DDR4 DIMM slots, supporting the motherboard for up to 128GB of memory in a four-channel configuration and at a native top speed of 3, 600 MHz. We continue with four steel-reinforced PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slots to seamlessly support the heaviest and most powerful graphics cards on the market and a PCIe 2.0 x1 slot for an expansion card. A 6-pin auxiliary connector is responsible for improving the stability of graphics cards.

One of Threadripper's strengths will be PCI-Express bus-based storage, the processors all include 64 lanes so there are no problems installing three M.2 slots and one U.2 slot alongside eight SATA III ports. 6 GB / s much more traditional.

We continue with a Realtek ALC1220 sound system with Creative SoundBlaster Cinema 3 technology, two RGB connectors, WiFi ac + Bluetooth 4.2 connectivity, two USB 3.1 ports, eight USB 3.0 ports, two Intel signed Gigabit network ports, an LED display and Power / Reset buttons.
