Ready to Power Flagship to Mainstream PCs
All the new ASRock X870E / X870 motherboards, from the flagship Taichi series to the mainstream Steel Legend and Pro RS WiFi, feature a highly robust design for extreme performance. The Taichi series combines SPS Dr.MOS power delivery of up to 24+2+1 phases, server-grade 8-layer PCBs enabling excellent memory overclocking up to DDR5-8200, and exclusive low-ripple 1000μf 20K black capacitors that guarantee stable and superior performance for the CPU.
Blazing Speed IO with DIY-friendly Designs
All boards include both PCI-Express Gen-5 GPU and Blazing M.2 (Gen5x4) SSD ports, along with two USB4 Type-C ports on the rear I/O for external peripherals requiring extreme speeds. Their DIY-friendly design includes an EZ release graphics card slot and toolless M.2 heatsink installation, simplifying system setup. ASRock even provides an additional heatsink pre-installed under the M.2 SSD, which can significantly reduce PCI-Express Gen-5 SSD temperatures to help prevent thermal throttling. All motherboards include the BIOS Flashback function, accessible via the rear I/O, allowing for effortless BIOS updates even without the CPU and memory installed.
ASRock Patented Connectivity Innovation
Networking includes the latest and fastest WiFi 7 (802.11be) 2×2, offering next-generation multi-gigabit speeds and low-latency throughput that’s ideal for gaming and wireless VR headsets. ASRock’s optimized 5Gbps LAN on X870E series motherboards boasts a patented design for superior EMI resistance, ensuring high-speed and stable performance.
