Taichi represents the philosophical state of undifferentiated absolute and infinite potential.
Dr.MOS design features the latest SPS (Smart Power Stage) technology. It’s optimized for monitoring the current and temperature of each phase, thus delivering smoother and neater power to the CPU with enhanced performance and OC capability.
Featuring sturdy components and completely smooth power delivery to the CPU, Plus, it gives advanced gamers the best overclocking options and the best performance with the lowest temperature.
The 8-layer PCB provides stable signal traces and power shapes, delivering lower temperatures and higher energy efficiency, ensuring a reliable and long-lasting system while delivering ultimate performance without any compromise.
The reinforced DIMM slot is surface mounted onto the motherboard to give better physical strength as well as a more stable memory signal. With this superior, revolutionary design, it is able to dramatically overclock DRAM modules up to an insane frequency.
Due to the unique electrical architecture of DDR5 DIMM, there’s a high risk of damaging the memory module if AC power isn’t disconnected properly during removal or installation.
To prevent this, ASRock has implemented a trouble free protection circuit on every DDR5 motherboard, which lowers the risk of damaging your memory module.
Compared to the conventional DIP-style PCIe slot, the SMT-style PCIe slot improves signal flow and maximizes stability under high speed—a key breakthrough to fully support the lightning speed of the latest PCIe 5.0 standard.
The latest PCI Express 5.0 is capable of a breathtaking bandwidth of 128 GBps, ready to unleash the full potential of future high-end graphics cards.
The Blazing M.2 uses the latest PCI Express 5.0 standard to provide twice as much bandwidth as previous generations.
With a transfer speed of 128 Gb/s, it is ready to let future ultrafast SSDs reach their full potential.
Tired of missing or dropped screws inside the chassis?
The enhanced M.2 heatsink has an anti-drop screw design that makes the installation process easier.
Thunderbolt 4/USB4 technology brings speed and versatility to the most advanced USB Type-C, offering a fast and simple level of connection for work or home.
It lets you transfer data at speeds of up to 40 GB/s and connects external monitors, Thunderbolt, and USB devices with a single Thunderbolt 4 cable.
Enjoy the next generation PD 3.0's superfast charging rate of up to 9V at 3A 27W!
Aimed at die-hard gamers and enthusiasts! Lightning Gaming Ports come from two different controller interfaces and help gamers connect high-speed mice and keyboards with less jitter and latency.
In addition to the built-in RGB illumination, it also features onboard RGB headers and an addressable RGB header that allow the motherboard to be connected to compatible LED devices such as strips, CPU fans, coolers, chassis, and so on.
Users can also use the Polychrome RGB Sync-certified accessories to synchronize RGB LED devices to create their own unique lighting effects.
WiFi 6E technology has extended to the whole new 6GHz spectrum band, providing more WiFi capability and allowing for even better and faster internet traffic. Along with faster speeds, WiFi 6E improves latency and supports service levels that are the same as those of 5G networks.
The latest USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Type-C delivers up to 20 Gbps of data transfer rate, which is twice as fast as the previous generation, providing a blazing-fast data transfer interface with a reversible USB Type-C design that fits the connector either way.
