ASRock’s X370 Taichi is their third Taichi branded motherboard to hit the market. The Taichi is one of ASRock’s top-end motherboards, so it’s loaded with the latest features. The ying-yang symbol provides a pleasant aesthetic to match your (Ry)zen processor. Excuse the wordplay, but the coincidence is a neat thing, and could provide for a great build theme.

Our first X370 motherboard review is on the motherboard that AMD provided inside our Ryzen reviewer’s kit. The Crosshair VI Hero is ASUS’s current top offering for the AMD AM4 platform and uses AMD’s X370 chipset. The X370 chipset and Ryzen CPU ecosystem is no longer similar to that of Intel, or anything we have seen before.

GIGABYTE have also implemented their USB DAC-UP 2 technology on two rear panel USB ports, as well as via the front USB30_1 header, this technology provides clean, isolated, low noise power which is suitable for external DACs (Digital-to-Analogue Converter) aka external soundcards/headphone amps as well as high power peripherals such as VR headsets/external storage drives.

As you’d expect from a £200+ ROG board, you get the full complement of overclocking and testing tools, including USB BIOS Flashback, which helped us out more than once with some teething problems we’ve had in our initial Ryzen testing. There’s a CMOS clear switch, power and reset buttons plus an LED POST display, as well.

With the plethora of connectivity options enabled by X370, ASRock has taken the bull by the horns and given us a board that will become the centerpiece to any PC builder’s work of art. Reminiscent of our MSI 990FXA Gaming review back in 2016, the Taichi is a beauty.

It also has six integrated temperature sensor in various zones which can be synched in tune with the Gigabyte SmartFan 5 system. Unlike many X370 motherboards however, the AB350-Gaming 3 is also Ryzen APU ready, having display output options available for when AMD releases Ryzen processors with integrated graphics capability.

We’ve mentioned before how the new X370 chipset has really dragged AMD into the 21st century with all the latest features available, and the Crosshair VI Hero is no exception. Not only do you get the full elements that you would hope to find on an AM4 motherboard – USB 3.1, M.2 socket and the like, but being a Republic of Gamers motherboard it has all the ASUS details too.

AMD and MSI had slipped us an X370 XPower Gaming Titanium along with the rest of the kit. While I’ve taken a look at a lot of MSIs boards, I haven’t had the chance to check out any of their Titanium boards and it is an area where I think MSI has really been showing some creativity, so I’m excited to take a closer look at the new board and find out if the Titanium has the features to back up its good looks.

Also, because it’s part of the Gigabyte Aorus range, there is lots of lighting to tinker with to ensure that your motherboard is unique to you. Much more than just an RGB logo, there are LEDs everywhere. Which in these modern times where people like the sizzle as much as the steak is a fillip for Gigabyte.
