High-quality CPU VRM solution – 13 phases and heatpipe cooling solution, Dual Gigabit and WiFi, Triple M.2 and 10 SATA ports, Neutral colour scheme, Shielded PCIe slots, Dual LED headers, Debug code reader
1T1R WiFi is entry-level, Onboard RGB LEDs are underwhelming, No onboard power or reset buttons, No M.2 cooling solution
A bountiful range of X299 options exist currently on the market and differentiating between models tends to be difficult at the best of times. That said ASRock has still managed to carve out its own unique identity with the X299 Taichi XE motherboard.At t...

Eighten X299-motherboards later we can at least conclude that we have not come across a single motherboard that is truly bad. What this means is that you can build a properly working and high performing system based on every tested board. Considering the...
Great overclocking, Good efficiency, Dual Gigabit Ethernet plus Wi-Fi, Three M.2 NVMe slots with one fed directly by the CPU
Wi-Fi module is lower model than competing products, No SLI support on Kaby Lake-X
The X299 Taichi's CPU-fed M.2 slot is likely the biggest competitive advantage of the three LGA 2066 motherboards tested thus far. Though the way its extra M.2 slot is connected precludes SLI when used with Kaby Lake-X, the X299 Taichi is cheap enough to...
Perfect stability and compatibility, Great layout and design, 3x M.2 32Gbps support, High overclocking potential, Good cooling, Double LAN, WiFi+Bluetooth, Inexpensive ( considering what it offers )

If you are looking for a top quality, well performing, well overclocking, fully stable motherboard based on the Intel X299 chipset with many additional features, great support and really great price then no look any further, the Taichi XE is here!The X299...

The Taichi is priced at $290 on Newegg, which places the Taichi near the ASUS Prime X299-A ($296), the MSI Tomahawk AC ($290) and the EVGA X299 Micro ($290).The Taichi, compared to the Fatal1ty X299 Professional Gaming i9 we recently reviewed, is aimed at...
Price, 13-phase power design, Triple Ultra M.2 slots, Support for Quad-SLI and Quad-Crossfire, Unique gear design, RGB lighting and two RGB headers, Dual LAN as well as WiFi, USB 3.1
BIOS and software could use some work
ASRock's Taichi motherboards really do stand out when compared to other motherboards. Most motherboard manufactures have an entry-level segment, then a gaming segment, and then finally a high-end enthusiast segment. The Taichi sort of has elements from al...
Support Skylake-X and KabyLake-X processors, Feature-packed with loads of options and connectivity, Great looking Taichi design, Supports dual and quad channel memory, Able to overclock i5-7640X to 5.1GHz with ease
No onboard power/reset buttons, Final Thoughts, The ASRock X299 Taichi motherboard is a “must-have” for all you enthusiasts and hardcore overclockers out there. The board not only looks great with its Taichi design, but also performs just as good, 1 2 3

UEFI interface, performance, overclocking, power consumption, price/performance ratio
ASRock sent me their X299 Taichi motherboard and after several tests I can say that it is a great product. I would start with the excellent look, and those 2 cog wheels that give the impression they are alive and moving.The performance is good, but Taichi...
