I can think of two relatively quick things to try:

1: Clear CMOS using this method, 10mins should be long enough to "unfreeze"
the controller firmware.

2. Try disable tunneling in your BIOS if the above doesn't work.

Let me know how it goes.]]> Wed, 16 Sep 2026 15:47:49 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113583&PID=202027&title=x670e-taichi-carrara-tb-usb4-enumeration#202027 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113253&PID=202026&title=new-member-amd-motherboard-thread#202026 Author: Xaltar

**Subject: Rear Thunderbolt/USB4 ports fail to enumerate devices ??ASRock X670E Taichi Carrara**

**TLDR:** Rear USB4/Thunderbolt ports on my Taichi Carrara won't reliably enumerate any device, dock, webcam, or plain external SSD, even though every individual device is confirmed working fine elsewhere. Points to a port or controller level fault rather than a driver or device compatibility issue. Anyone seen this or found a working fix?

**System:** Ryzen 9 7950X3D, ASRock X670E Taichi Carrara, PNY RTX 5080, G.Skill Flare X5 32GB DDR5 6000MHz, Samsung 980 Pro 1TB, Seasonic Focus GX-1000, Windows 11 Pro (clean install)

**Symptoms:** Rear Thunderbolt/USB4 ports fail to properly detect multiple, unrelated devices:
- Anker Prime TB5 dock: Code 10 on Intel USB 3.10 eXtensible Host Controller in Device Manager. Thunderbolt Control Center shows the controller itself as healthy (TB4, chip 1137, PCIe tunneling enabled, firmware v35.0), but it never lists any attached devices.
- Samsung T7 Shield SSD, connected directly with no dock or hub involved: powers on briefly then drops. Confirmed healthy, works perfectly on a different laptop via direct connection.
- Logitech Brio webcam via Logi Dock: only enumerates reliably at USB 2.0 speeds (high-speed USB 3.0 mode off); fails to be detected at USB 3.0 speeds.
- Anker dock's built-in Ethernet port: never detected in Device Manager at all when connected through the rear port.

**Troubleshooting completed:**
- Full BIOS update to latest version
- Reinstalled AMD chipset drivers
- Uninstalled/reinstalled Intel Thunderbolt driver via Intel Driver & Support Assistant
- Disabled USB selective suspend (globally and per-device for the Thunderbolt controller + all Generic USB Hub entries)
- Confirmed the separate Code 28 "Unknown device" is harmless (ACPI\AMDI0204, an AMD component), unrelated to this issue
- Confirmed the dock is fully functional when tested on two separate Macs (M3 Pro and M5 Pro), and a Lenovo Legion 9i ruling out the dock itself
- Clean Windows 11 install already done prior to this troubleshooting

I already have a support ticket open with ASRock, yet to receive a reply though, but wanted to check if anyone else on the Taichi Carrara has run into this specific pattern, since it doesn't seem tied to any one device.]]> Wed, 16 Sep 2026 15:01:36 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113583&PID=202025&title=x670e-taichi-carrara-tb-usb4-enumeration#202025 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113564&PID=202024&title=tweaktown-x870e-taichi-white-review#202024 Author: marktuan

I like the direction ASRock took with the White version. The combination of 10G LAN, WiFi 7, USB4, and five M.2 slots makes it pretty easy to build a high-end system around this board, and the cooling results are encouraging too.

The price difference compared with the regular Taichi is probably the biggest thing I'd think about. For someone who isn't specifically building a white-themed PC, the standard Taichi seems hard to ignore at its lower price.

One thing I'm curious about is the memory support. Since the review mentions the lack of official high-speed memory support, how well did the board handle DDR5 kits around 8000 MT/s in actual testing? I'd be interested to know whether the limitation is mostly an official-support issue or whether there are stability concerns at those speeds.]]> Wed, 16 Sep 2026 09:57:03 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113564&PID=202024&title=tweaktown-x870e-taichi-white-review#202024 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113582&PID=202020&title=b850mx-wifi-r2-0-post-issue#202020 Author: Xaltar

BIOS version 4.43 is the latest for your board and came out in July so you likely
already have the latest BIOS.

When you say you have to wait 5-10 mins before powering off and back on for it to
POST, does that mean it still refuses to POST if you power on, then back off then
on again immediately? I have seen quite a few reports (from all brands) about needing
to power off then back on again on cold boot but I don't recall seeing anyone
needing to wait to do so.

Things to try:
1. Disable EXPO/XMP and see if the behavior persists
2. Reset the BIOS to factory defaults and try like that without modification
3. Try enabling Memory Context Restore in the BIOS and see if that helps, it
should be under Advanced\AMD CBS\UMC Common Options
4. If none of that helps, try using flashback again to the latest BIOS (even if
you are already on it). Sometimes Flashback bugs out and doesn't write correctly.

I hope this helps.]]> Wed, 16 Sep 2026 04:14:51 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113582&PID=202020&title=b850mx-wifi-r2-0-post-issue#202020 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113253&PID=202019&title=new-member-amd-motherboard-thread#202019 Author: Xaltar

B850M-X WiFi R2.0 POST Issue

CPU : Ryzen 5 9600X
RAM : Klevv Bolt V DDR5 6000 32GB CL28
PSU : BeQuiet! Pure Power 13 M 850W
GPU : Gigabyte RTX 5060ti Windforce 8GB
SSD : WD Black SN7100 1TB
BIOS ver. : 4.43

My issue is that every time I turn on the PC for the first time after I turn it off for more than a few hours (e.g. overnight) I almost always get stuck at red + orange light status, which I assume is memory training. I then would have to wait for 5-10 mins, power off, then power on again and it usually will POST the 2nd time.

I build this PC last month (Aug 2026). I updated the BIOS to the version that was the latest at the time, which I presume it still is, via flashback method. I have tried waited for 2-3 hours and let it stuck there, no help. Other than that, everything seems to be working fine.

Thanks in advance for any help.]]> Wed, 16 Sep 2026 02:41:59 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113582&PID=202018&title=b850mx-wifi-r2-0-post-issue#202018 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113250&PID=202017&title=new-member-ai-quickset-queries#202017 Author: AlexScott

Try checking your temps with "ASRock Motherboard Utility ver:4.1.11" from your motherboard
downloads page. It's not uncommon for 3rd party temp monitors to misread sensors.

Temp spikes around 70c for the PCH are perfectly fine but if this is idle temps
then it's a bit on the high side. If your case is cramped or doesn't have enough
airflow you may want to look at getting some airflow over the PCH heatsink. While
gaming or running the system under heavy load 70c is perfectly fine. It's only
once temps start creeping past 80c that you may have an issue.

Check with the motherboard's utility from your product page or, you can try Ryzen
Master to check temps. 70c would be too hot to keep your finger on. ]]> Tue, 15 Sep 2026 02:52:45 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113581&PID=202016&title=b650-pro-chipset-temp-concerns#202016 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113253&PID=202015&title=new-member-amd-motherboard-thread#202015 Author: Xaltar
