ASRock Z490 Taichi Intel motherboard

SKU CH-6HGT-W1HQR

An Intel LGA 1200 motherboard with 15-phase Dr. MOS power, DDR4 4666 MHz support, triple PCIe 3.0 x16 slots, dual Super M.2, 2.5 GbE LAN and 7.1 Realtek ALC1220 audio

  • CPU TypeIntel Core 10th Gen (LGA 1200)
  • 15-phase Dr. MOS power design delivers stable CPU voltage
  • DDR4 memory overclocks to 4666 MHz for faster throughput
  • Super M.2 slot runs PCIe Gen4 x4 for high-speed storage
  • 5 Gigabit LAN plus Intel 802.11 ax WiFi gives flexible networking
  • 1-channel Realtek ALC1220 audio with Nahimic provides clear sound

ASRock Z490 Taichi DDR4 Motherboard

This ASRock Z490 Taichi motherboard accepts 10th and 11th generation Intel Core processors in the LGA 1200 socket. It delivers a 15-phase Dr. MOS power design and supports DDR4 memory up to 4666 MHz when overclocked. The board includes three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots and two PCIe 3.0 x1 slots plus a Super M.2 interface with PCIe Gen4 x4 support.

Suited for High-End Intel Builds

Builders planning a 10th or 11th generation Intel system with multi-GPU configurations will appreciate the SLI and CrossFireX support alongside the robust 60A inductors and 50A Dr. MOS stages. The 2.5 Gigabit LAN, 7.1 Channel Realtek ALC1220 audio and USB 3.2 Gen2x2 front-panel header complete a premium feature set. Buyers who need more than three full-length PCIe 3.0 x16 slots or require memory speeds beyond the supported DDR4 range should look at alternative platforms.

LGA 1200 Socket Decides Compatibility

The LGA 1200 socket is the single specification that determines whether this motherboard fits the intended processor. Only 10th and 11th generation Intel Core CPUs are supported, so a different socket or generation will not work.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the 15-phase Dr. MOS power delivery is active after building with a 10th or 11th Gen Intel Core CPU?

Enter the BIOS and check the hardware monitor section; it reports real-time Vcore, phase count and temperature readings for the 15-phase Dr. MOS design so you can verify stable operation under load.

What accessories are included with the Z490 Taichi and what must I source separately?

The box contains the motherboard, I/O shield and documentation; you will need to purchase DDR4 memory, a compatible LGA 1200 processor, storage drives and a chassis separately.

Which M.2 slot should I choose for a PCIe Gen4 x4 drive versus a PCIe Gen3 x4 or SATA3 drive?

Use the Super M.2 labelled PCIe Gen4 x4 for the fastest drive; the second Super M.2 supports PCIe Gen3 x4 and SATA3 devices, so match the drive to the appropriate slot.
