ASRock Z390 Taichi Intel Motherboard
This ATX motherboard uses the Intel Z390 chipset and an LGA 1151 socket to support 8th and 9th generation Intel Core processors. It delivers a 12-phase power design with an IR digital controller and 60A inductors for stable overclocking. Four DDR4 slots accept memory speeds up to 4200+(OC) for high-performance builds.
Expansion and Connectivity Focus
Builders who need three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots for multi-GPU configurations such as NVIDIA Quad SLI or AMD 3-Way CrossFireX will find the layout suitable. The board also provides USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-A and Type-C ports at 10 Gb/s, dual M.2 slots with thermal armor, and 7.1-channel audio via the Realtek ALC1220 codec. It is not for buyers who require a newer CPU socket or more than three full-length PCIe slots.
DDR4 4200+(OC) Memory Support
The maximum qualified memory speed of DDR4 4200+(OC) is the key figure when matching this board to a memory kit. If your chosen modules are rated beyond this frequency, the board may not run them at their advertised speed without manual tuning. Buyers planning extreme memory overclocks should verify compatibility with the vendor's qualified vendor list.
