Ryzen threadripper receives the new asrock x399m taichi motherboard

Ryzen Threadripper are the successful HEDT range processors that AMD has put on the market under the Zen architecture, until now there was no Mini ITX motherboard available for these chips, but this has changed with the announcement of the ASRock X399M Taichi.

Characteristics ASRock X399M Taichi

ASRock X399M Taichi has been announced to confirm ASRock as one of the most innovative motherboard manufacturers, because after being the first to bring SODIMM memory modules to the X299 platform, it has also been the first to announce a Mini motherboard ITX for AMD's enthusiastic platform.

The ASRock X399M Taichi gives us the possibility of assembling a tremendous team with a 16-core, 32-wire processor in a very small format. To power the processor, an 11-phase power VRM has been mounted, a very high number that guarantees good electrical stability as well as plenty of power for overclocking.

The use of such a small format with a gigantic socket like the TR4 requires some sacrifices, in this case we only found four DDR4 DIMM slots so we will be forced to keep a configuration of 64 GB maximum.

We continue to see the characteristics of the ASRock X399M Taichi, and we find eight SATA III 6 Gb / s ports along with three M.2 ports and one U.2 port, so we will have no problems enjoying large doses of storage. It also includes a 802.11ac WiFi module and two Gigabit network ports to navigate at full throttle.

We will have to wait for the CES in Las Vegas to know more details about this motherboard, at first it looks very good, although the memory limitation is a shame.
