14mF on the low-side is pretty bonkers. By the way, I mentioned interdigitated capacitors on CPU packages on-stream a while back and you asked why they'd use them on the package edges given that the copper from the die to the edge has far more inductance than the capacitor itself, meaning that the difference of ~100pH in the capacitor itself is negligible. I didn't have a good answer for that at the time, but I did finally figure it out with a little help from some reference designs. The answer isn't really anything to do with PDN inductance, but rather field confinement. Since there's a lot of dI/dt in the decoupling caps, the fields do spread out a fair bit. Using interdigitated caps results in tighter field confinement, which means you get fewer field lines cutting through the substrate in that area, producing less crosstalk from the PDN to other signals. It's also useful because you get staggered microvias instead of a wall of parallel microvias, which is lower inductance in itself but also frees up additional pour space on planes in the layers immediately under the cap.
My main interest in this board is the ability to run all NVME drives while still having x16 to the GPU. A lot of boards cut the primary PCIE slot to x8.
but still can't run a PCIE5 NVME full speed and PCIE x16 though right ? which I thought felt weird. at least from my understanding, maybe got it wrong I haven't really looked into it, still far from being able to afford a new upgrade lol
@ it can run full speed nvme and pcie 16, it can’t run two pcie cards at 16, it cuts bandwidth to 8 on each if you do that, but I don’t stream so it doesn’t matter to me
So going to play devil's advocate here. This is the lesser of many evils. I would far prefer them to be overhyping the caps and paying a little extra for something that is complete overkill than have them cutting costs by trying to shove in the cheapest caps they can get away with. I think it's probably more consumer friendly to have this situation rather than to actually sit down and work out if my board actually has reasonable switching performance in x,y,z scenarios. If it means we have to scoff at the marketing, so be it.
When I decided to switch from 1200 to AM5 I was considering B650E Taichi lite as a perfect candidate for the price. It was the most affordable mobo that featured external clock gen with a price tag around $260. But somehow I bought used X670E Hero for $300 on ebay and never regretted. I was defatted by Asus marketing)) To justify the choice I have to admit that my previous Z490 formula delivered me the most user-friendly experience ever in terms of the OC
The only thing I can think of for why ASRock swung for the fences (aside from "this one goes to 11" reasons) is that they might have intel (no pun intended) on future AM5 CPU demands, but even then, your point about the socket stands. For this current generation, all of the makers would've had to have tested 9950X3D samples to ensure they at least WORKED.
Wanna know why I didnt buy an X870E Tachi Lite board? Cause the damned thing is outa stock everywhere along with all of the other ASRock X870E boards! I want those T_Sens ports!
Will there be a video on overclocking the CPU and Ram on the taichi lite? (anxiously waiting...) especially with a 9800x3d since it's difficult to get an oc in the ram
The VRM on my Sabertooth Z77 with a moderately overclocked (and undervolted) 3770K is still running strong as my nephew's daily driver. After 7+ years of workstation duty, it's now powering his Fortnite gaming PC. 😉 Safe to say, caps are the least of its problems...
Must be nice to have a functioning board. I have a Taichi and it was DOA. Now all of the best three AsRock boards have been sold out everywhere in the US for weeks. Also, only the Nova doesn't share PCI-e lanes with the top GPU slot. The Taichi and Taichi Lite only run at x8 if you use the bottom slot. If you still need to use a sound card like many actually still do, you're setting your GPU at x8. I have no idea why AsRock made the Nova better than the two boards above it that cost $50 - $100 more, but it is. In every way it's equal the Taichi aside from not having the heavy backplate, and it's better about lane sharing. It even has the EZ-release that the Lite does not for whatever reason.
The EZ latch missing is weird in hindsight as asrock's solution isn't very complicated. Maybe a dollar or two saved but the thing's basically an extended latch under spring tension.
@@floodo1 Still using the Essence STX since not only can the amp power my 600Ohm headphones, it also has Dolby Headphone 7.1 which is still the best virtualization algorithm on PC for gaming, and it's better than the generic "Atmos over headphone" they are trying to push on Windows.
@@monotoneone This is incorrect. It's Gen 3 x16. It also has a PCI-e 2 Gen 3 that runs at x1, which is where a sound card would be used. That slot used to be standard on all motherboards, now they're being phased out everywhere despite the fact that sound cards do still exist. Also, who actually uses 2x GPUs at x8 besides maybe miners and video editors?
@@jeancarrascoo No, it can't run 8000mhz, but why would we? In my country cheapest 32 GB 8000hz ram costs roughly $250, I'd rather go for 48 GB 6000Mhz for $150. Besides, no games benefit from 8000 Mhz RAM with 9800x3d.
The Lite doesn't have RGB out the ass, it doesn't have the EZ release on the main PCIe slot, and you don't get the backplate. Aside from that it's the exact same board.
The one thing I noticed with Asrock motherboards is the fast boot time. I don't know if anyone else noticed, but no matter what ssd or fast boot setting, I only got sub 10 second until windows with asrock... I have now asus I had gigabyte both with 3gb/s nvme ssd. My coworker with the cheapest asrock and cheapest ssd beats it :-D
And what about the Asrock NOVA? I've watched a lot of videos and it's supposed to be pretty good, although it costs the same as the Taichi Lite for me, but the NOVA has a backplate. Well, the MOSFETs are a little worse, but I have no idea, I'm not familiar with that xD. A short time ago it was €50 cheaper than the Taichi Lite, but now it costs about the same. 405€ vs 414€ (TL)
I came here thinking you will make me regret my purchase decision of not going with the Taichi Lite and I am happy that i got the Steel Legend instead.
I want CDIMM and the short evised ram slot pin design from Asus(?). I've been very interested but I understand it's not as simple as I think... I'm just really curious if there's any tangible difference using those two new pieces of technology together.
I wonder what effect this has on power consumption in real-world workloads that have a lot of idle time? C1e and deeper allow reducing voltage to minimum frequency (at least on Intel; IDK AMD), and once energy is put into those caps, the only way it leaves is by going through the CPU and getting turned into heat. It'd slow down how quickly the CPU can increase frequency and exit idle states too. That wouldn't be a problem in performance mode, but then you're making energy efficiency even *worse*.
I was immediately suspicious when I saw the picture because these caps are so far away from the socket. Does this factor in to the performance of the board? Looked to me like "hey, we put a couple more caps SOMEWHERE on the board". 😄
@Actually Hardcore Overclocking: An extremely popular video series would be the rankings of VRMs for different motherboards at each approximate price point between the different manufacturers. Thats what we all need to know. Start asking viewers to unscrew heatsinks and send in ultra high resolution photos. Eventually all the tech media should also start pushing the narrative that exclusive no-name/no datasheet parts = poor.
I am hoping you daily an Asrock board. Few videos on TH-cam do; I’ve seen the Asus bios so much, it’s like I own one. I have X670E Tiachi Carrara. While the bios/board does not seem to have an “eclk” to use, it does have an option for “bclk” wherein PCIe=100Mhz, kind of feels like it’s accessing an eclk, but I dunno. Also, bclk increments aren’t great: 101, 102, 104, and 105. Wish I could try 103mhz. I run at 102, with a boost limit at max of 200mhz. HWinfo64 max freq values hit 5.925Ghz for all cores or so. Both CCD’s on my 7950x hit all core 5.9Ghz when max power is limited to 170w eco mode (cbr23 score 36k+), with power limit set to board max, CCD0 always has the higher clocks per HWinfo64 (cbr23 score 39k+, could never break 40k). In terms of CCD’s I think I hit the silicone lottery. The IMC not so much. 6.2Ghz is solid. While it “can” run 6.4Ghz with a lot of fussing, cbr23 scores are lower. I am guessing the ECC happening in the Infinity Fabric is working overtime. … so please showcase sometime in the Asrock bios if you can. The default bios 1.04 let these cores really fly at 5.85Ghz (CCD0) and 5.5Ghz (CCD1); but memory tuning a disaster as tRef not even accessible. Thanks for the past and future content.
I wouldn't say the taichi is worth it unless ur going for the aesthetic or looks like u said since the vrms are overkill. But, I do think they might help for am6 or Zen 6 I forget the name since it will be on these motherboards too apparently for rumors. I do think as a brand ASRock is more reliable. Their customer support is better compared to Asus gigabyte and msi. And as for am5 boards I've heard a lot of people have had issues with MSI boards and Asus boards recently so. And I haven't heard of too many faulty ASRock boards. That being said I would recommend like a x870 steel legend or the pro rs etc. Since they are good enough
I hope for DDR5 overclocking as I have same board and I'm struggling to stabilize 6400 or 8000 with some bit more challenging timings. Let the river of knowledge flow @buildzoid
I ended up buying the X870E Crosshair Hero because it runs 8000MTs (38-48-48-84) RAM flawlessly, with FCLK and UCLK set to 2000 and the Asus AI Memory Tweaker applied. This actually reduced latency from 74 to 65 in AIDA64, and everything works unbelievably well. The RAM stays between 28 and 39 degrees under load while gaming (I have a fan on the RAM), the chipset stays under 50 degrees, and the 7800X3D runs incredibly cool with an overclock, undervolt, and Curve Shaper applied.
really hope you can get the most out of your CPUs with it, because im bummed out on my B650E Taichi Lite with 8000 and 9000 series CPUs. Also on HDV and Lightning itx, so i got an ASUS itx and its miles better. Just my 2 cents I really hope its good for you.
Some mobo mfgs feel like they have to do sOMETHINg to justify doubling their prices.... this is guilt. It means the mfg. dOEs care... a little... Brands like MSI, ASUS, Gigabyte... they don't fake it. Make the board as cheap as possible to spec and make more profit.
i don't like any of the new crop of ryzen boards. very inflexible with the pcie slot configs. i want more than 2 and one of them being x1 electrical most of the time. i've seen two boards with a 1x physical between the x16 physicals, and a billion m.2 slots i'm not going to use. i don't want dongles, and it seems like things are migrating that way.
You know that products are built to fail and not last, when they use capacitors that have only 20k hours lifespan. For context, if you leave your PC on 24/7, that is just around 2 years.
Wrong. The rating is at 105c. Every 5-10c lower doubles the projected lifespan, depending on the product line. You're running yours at a temp that basically guarantees 10+ lifespan no matter how degenerate your overclocking is.
isn't this board out of stock everywhere? just wait till all major vendors starts putting 20K caps on all boards because that's ObViOslY the reason why that one sell so well /s
the only upside I can see with the carbon is the PCI-e 3.0 x4 slot from the chipset. The Taichi has ECLK support. As of right now MSI's BIOS implementation is a bit better for RAM OC(tRCDWR and certain settings are less hidden). So it really depends which features you want.
why are they using through hole caps? Seems like a low hanging fruit for reducing ESL and getting a maybe actually measurable improvement the higher capacitance version probably also has a bit higher ESL than the smaller one, no?
Yeah but try explaining to normie buyers what an ESL and ESR is. Much easier to go for a huge endurance rating and capacitance. Also I haven't measured the ASUS ITX yet to see if the 3 terminal SPCAPs even manage to do anything. It might turn out that the CPU socket is just too much of a bottleneck(which might explain why ASUS removed some MLCCs from the socket on X870)
Asrock is by far the best. Very little stupid gimmicks which just break and normally better true features at a lower price. Especially Asus, they just dump Vcore to lower returns etc.
Does seem like overkill. My Marshall Plexi replica guitar amp uses filter capacitors after the rectifiers to smooth out the ripple supplying the tubes with 200-480 VDC. There's only a few of them and they range from 16uF to 50+50uF. The main thing is they are rated to handle the high voltage and are high quality, so they do not pop and spray cap juice all over the show. Most nodes supplying the plates/anodes of the tubes only require a couple of stages of filtering to get a very smooth waveform on the scope, but maybe a CPU needs even smoother - I dunno. Electrolytic caps do dry out over time though, so them not being that is good (I remember so many mobos dying on me back in the early 2000s before long life caps became a thing).

i don't like any of the new crop of ryzen boards. very inflexible with the pcie slot configs. i want more than 2 and one of them being x1 electrical most of the time. i've seen two boards with a 1x physical between the x16 physicals, and a billion m.2 slots i'm not going to use.
i don't want dongles, and it seems like things are migrating that way.
Oh ASRock,, still using "DRMOS SPS" LOL.
You know that products are built to fail and not last, when they use capacitors that have only 20k hours lifespan.
For context, if you leave your PC on 24/7, that is just around 2 years.
Wrong. The rating is at 105c. Every 5-10c lower doubles the projected lifespan, depending on the product line. You're running yours at a temp that basically guarantees 10+ lifespan no matter how degenerate your overclocking is.
@Diablo-D3 gracias 😃
isn't this board out of stock everywhere?
just wait till all major vendors starts putting 20K caps on all boards because that's ObViOslY the reason why that one sell so well /s
$400 for a motherboard is just too much
What a load of marketing crap 😂
Would you recommend the Taichi or the MSI x870e carbon if you had to choose between the two?
the only upside I can see with the carbon is the PCI-e 3.0 x4 slot from the chipset. The Taichi has ECLK support. As of right now MSI's BIOS implementation is a bit better for RAM OC(tRCDWR and certain settings are less hidden). So it really depends which features you want.
24 110a phases lol
advertisement....You dont need this board for current CPU and price performance please 🙂is it worth it ?!
Bigger number better.
why are they using through hole caps? Seems like a low hanging fruit for reducing ESL and getting a maybe actually measurable improvement
the higher capacitance version probably also has a bit higher ESL than the smaller one, no?
Yeah but try explaining to normie buyers what an ESL and ESR is. Much easier to go for a huge endurance rating and capacitance. Also I haven't measured the ASUS ITX yet to see if the 3 terminal SPCAPs even manage to do anything. It might turn out that the CPU socket is just too much of a bottleneck(which might explain why ASUS removed some MLCCs from the socket on X870)
@@ActuallyHardcoreOverclocking yeah i was a bit confused seeing a giant hole of nothing on the back of the strix 870e-e, had less then the 670e-e.
Will you eventually go over asus x870e crosshair hero?
😈😈😈
Shame Asus mobos xd.
Hi
I think you should repeat your analysis and conclusions less. This would result in shorter and more enjoyable videos to watch.
This YT AI voice dub sucks, i can't turn off on TH-cam App 💀
What a weird video. You bought a motherboard just to clown on it? Technical aptitude yes. Fiscal aptitude, no.
Asrock is by far the best. Very little stupid gimmicks which just break and normally better true features at a lower price. Especially Asus, they just dump Vcore to lower returns etc.
i hate to break it to you, but asrock is an asus brand.. they are the same -___-
Cause This New Mobos allow you to clock better!
Does seem like overkill. My Marshall Plexi replica guitar amp uses filter capacitors after the rectifiers to smooth out the ripple supplying the tubes with 200-480 VDC. There's only a few of them and they range from 16uF to 50+50uF. The main thing is they are rated to handle the high voltage and are high quality, so they do not pop and spray cap juice all over the show. Most nodes supplying the plates/anodes of the tubes only require a couple of stages of filtering to get a very smooth waveform on the scope, but maybe a CPU needs even smoother - I dunno. Electrolytic caps do dry out over time though, so them not being that is good (I remember so many mobos dying on me back in the early 2000s before long life caps became a thing).
Guys, what is SA PLL frequency?
