hey dad man what what motherboards in this computer passcode of my asthma today it's time to take a look at the X 370 Tai Chi motherboard from asrock and it's supposed to be one of the most popular x 374th to get though is it the one to get let's find out welcome back and without wasting any more of your time let's get into the most important part the price the X 370 will set you back around 200 USD or if you are nas it will set you back 316 Australian dollars so what do you get for this money well the first is in an incredibly solid vrm it has a six plus two phase power design and when doubling these phases you get twelve plus four split between the V Corps and SOC voltage the Infineon ir35 to zero one digital PWM is supporting the six plus two phase mode and it is one of the best digital PWM s currently out there bar none each channel in the phase is sent to the dual driver chip that then outputs to two Texas Instruments CSD 870 35 euro q5d next fat MOSFETs the MOSFETs are rated at 25 amps at 90 percent efficiency and have a 40 amp maximum capacity the inductors are high-quality 60 amp parts and the capacitors are 12 kfp Japanese capacitors the memory also has its own two phases powered by the same aforementioned next sets so all up it is a very solid VRM especially for overclockers using air and or water for 24/7 stable use now moving on to the onboard audio you get a Realtek LC 1220 DAC and a DC and for the amplification there is a Texas Instruments ni NE 5 5 3 2 amp which did a great job of powering my v-moda headphones actually too good with the max levels being very loud and as to the other standard tests like crosstalk levels this is where the bomb performed extremely well to having incredibly low levels of crosstalk meaning you get really good channel separation and the I port in is also very solid with low levels of noise and on that note I will let you guys take a listen here's a quick mic in test on the X 370 taichi's mic in port with the v-moda boom Pro and also on that note if you guys are streaming or you want to do any work with recording from that mic import then this is what it will sound like as for overclocking this board had no problems getting my 1800 X - 4 point 0 to 5 gigahertz at one point 4 volts and did so with temperatures that were extremely good on the vrm heatsink where I measured with the IR gun a temperature of around 40 degrees Celsius in a 25 degree ambience with 20 mins in aida64 keep in mind though that this is a well ventilated case with good airflow looking over the motherboard the standout features are that there's two USB three and two USB two front out ports a doctor debug LED readout - RGB and one AMD LED fan headers to PC a 3/16 speed slot they connect directly to the CPUs PCIe controller and one PCIe 216 speed slot and two PCIe - one speed slots that connect via the chipset there are also two MDOT - nvme ports with one having support for both side of 3 and PC eigh and the lower having only support for PCIe connectivity there's also five for pin fan headers always support for PWM control via the BIOS and speaking of the bus it is quite good I have found since I first received the board that asrock have improved it quite a lot there is now options to save overclocking profile and also manually overclock your cpu via 25 megahertz increment in the manual peace states I have a full rise in overclocking tutorial up here which you guys can check out anytime there's also the fantastic fan tuning software within the box that works really easy and simple once you get the hang of it with the 1.9 4 beta by off - I'm running 64 gigabytes of ddr4 memory and dual channel - and haven't had any problems since also on the Box you can control the heatsink located towards the bottom of the motherboard which does feature RGB LED lighting for input/output you get a drumroll wafer a clear CMOS thank the heavens I love this little button which if you click it once we'll reset everything back to the fault so overclocking is made very easy with this button and there's also six USB 3 ports 13.1 type A and 13.1 types C there's also the Intel 2-1 180 gigabit NIC with Mac's 2 Q supported and Intel Jul been AC 3 168 wireless module and Bluetooth 4.2 support there's also the optical outline for 7.1 channel audio support and a mic and line-in lineout and headphone out jack as well as analog 5.1 surround support so now it's finally on to conclusion time and first I'll get out the only negative I have with this motherboard and that is that it only features a single bus I would have loved to have seen a dual bias implementation though this is a trend that I've seen practically on all x3 motherboards upon initial release and I am impressed with the continual BIOS updates that I have seen coming out which has improved not only performance but also stability and asrock have added in options like overclocking profiles and overall the vrm onboard audio and dual band wireless and included 2-1 180 NIC all do a great job of providing a very solid motherboard overall one that I can highly recommend to anyone looking to get a solid board for overclocking and having a great end-user experience I think as Rock has nailed it with the X 370 Taichi and I think it is current price it's actually really good value as well anyway guys I hope you enjoyed today's video and let me know in the comments section below what you think of the next 370 Taichi I personally think it looks awesome and it performs awesome too and I'll catch you guys in another tech video very soon also if you haven't already don't forget to hit that like button and subscribe and I'll peace out for now bye oh that is an ugly cable gone cable management whatever is not on the camera looks good that's it
