" rel="nofollow - How is the bios for x470 taichi? I'm planing to buy a new motherboard for 2700x and I'm looking at x470 taichi as an option. I read there is a lot of bios problems with x370 taichi and wonder if x470 have problems as well? What is your experience with x470 Bios? I want to run memory at 3200 MHz with good timings, probably gonna try to tweak them down myself with the spreadsheets available. Will probably use two of these sticks: Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 16GB 3200MHz 16CL CMW16GX4M2C3200C16 They must run at the timings listed at store at least, will this motherboard be able to do it or are there bios not good enough? Will the motherboard be able to do good subtimings or are there problems there? The motherboard seems to be really good and have all nice features that I look for. Only thing I worry about is the bios. What you guys say will decide if I buy ASRocK or go for another brand. BTW: Not related to this thread but forums are a bit clunky. I had to redo the chapta 5-6 times to register and all new and active threads are on page 2. |

BTW is the bios updated to AGESA Pinnacle PI 1.0.0.4c so there is support for 2000 series? In bios changelog it only says version 1.0.0.4 (1000 series)

Judging from my horrible experience with the X370 Taichi, and what people here say in general, I'd stay away. |

i think there are 2 major bugs on the X470 taichi ultimate i'm not sure on the vanilla's 1, enabling pbo locks cpu volts to -0.1v offset 2, cannot load bios profiles and whatever you do dont buy ram kits that aren't Samsung B-die if youre target is only 3200mhz its pretty good i've pushed mine to CL12 but put them back to CL14 for a non aggressive voltages. My system doesn't like anything beyond 3400mhz. I got the ultimate because of the 10G lan if youre getting vanilla i don't think its worth it. -------------
