The bad placement of the chipset/fan (under(!) a longer graphics card) is common for a lot of X570 boards.
The bad position for the USB header on X570 Phantom Gaming X or Taichi.
Another thing is the "heatsink" plate covering all M2 drives.
3 reasons for me to choose something different...
But a perfect board is not available on the market.

I would like a X570 Taichi 2.0 eliminating the said things, without onboard LED stuff and a chipset/fan construction which can be easy exchanged by a watercooling block...

Reinstalled drivers and all is well. GPU working in top slot now. The only down sides to the MB are the USBc header placement and SB fan noise. It is the loudes noise at idle. I have it turned way down also. While gaming the video card fans drown out the SB fan but they are not as annoying. Something about the pitch of the SB fan bothers me but does not bother my wife much at all. Overall a very nice board that needs the USB C header moved slightly to be great.]]> Sun, 17 Nov 2019 22:20:09 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12843&PID=70107&title=x570-phantom-gaming-x-top-pcie#70107 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12843&PID=69830&title=x570-phantom-gaming-x-top-pcie#69830 Author: Stew57

I have an X570 Phantom Gaming X with 3900x CPU installed. I have not bough a new GPU yet so put an old MSI MD Radeon HD 7770. It would not disply. I moved it to th esecond slot and it posted. I installed windows 10 then updated the bios and drivers. I shut down and moved the GPU back to the first slot but no display. You could hear the pc boot though. I moved it back down and it works fine.

Is there a MB problem or a setting I missed? I won't have a new GPU until after the first of the year so would like to know if I need to RMA.
