The Z370 Taichi, launched in September 2017, may not have looked dramatically different from other Taichi motherboards of its time, but it introduced two major innovations: * First Taichi motherboard with a front-panel USB Type-C header: Following the trend toward USB-C connectivity on PC cases, the Z370 Taichi was the first Taichi motherboard to support a front-panel Type-C connection. * Dedicated Clock Generator: Designed for hardcore overclockers, it enabled finer adjustments to the CPU base clock (BCLK) and other overclocking parameters, helping users squeeze out every last bit of performance.  Today, front-panel Type-C has become a common feature, while dedicated clock generators have become increasingly rare as automatic CPU boosting technology has evolved. The Z370 Taichi not only witnessed the evolution of PC hardware, but also captured an era when pushing every last bit of performance was part of the overclocking spirit.
