Throwback, X299 Taichi XE

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Back to October 2017, to complement Intel XE Extreme Edition processors on the 
X299 platform, ASRock launched the X299 Taichi XE, built to handle these flagship 
CPUs.

With increased power consumption and thermal demands, the X299 Taichi XE 
replaced the plastic rear I/O cover with an aluminum heatsink and heat pipe to 
enhance VRM cooling.

From the packaging to the default RGB lighting, the signature white was also 
changed to gold, matching the color scheme of Intel XE processor packaging.
