ASRock Z890 Taichi OCF Overview
Unleashing Extreme Performance
This motherboard, made for dedicated overclockers, is designed to use LN2 cooling to push your system to its maximum potential. Gain the greatest advantage in smashing records and optimizing hardware capabilities by experiencing previously unheard-of performance and stability in harsh environments.
Extreme Memory Overclocking
Based on the design principle of “built for stable and reliable,” ASRock doesn’t skimp on any aspects. This motherboard is constructed from premium materials, and by turning on the pre-tested profiles, enthusiasts may benefit from the increase in DDR5 memory overclocking capability. Verify that the RAM modules support AMD EXPO and Intel XMP, and that overclocking is inexpensive, fulfilling, and completely painless.
Memory overclocking has some hazards and might compromise the stability of your system. Please be aware that overclocking is something you should undertake at your own risk and cost. Support for EXPO/XMP profiles may change depending on the motherboard type, RAM modules, and system setup. The completed support list may be found in Memory QVL.
Top-tier hardware specifications, a sturdy power design, Thunderbolt 4 Type-C, and DIY-friendly functionality are all aspects of the Z890 Taichi OCF Taiichi series flagship motherboard. With its opulent design and potent performance, it is designed for high-end gamers.
Overclock Toolkit
OC Buttons Taichi OCF’s OC Buttons provide hardware-level controls to help with severe overclocking and improve your overclocking experience.
- +/- Rapid OC Buttons: These buttons let users change the OC frequency in Rapid OC fast and simply.
- Buttons for OC Profiles 1, 2, and 3: To load the preset OC Profiles 1, 2, or 3 rapidly, use the OC Profile Buttons in Rapid OC.
- LN2 Mode Switch: When using liquid nitrogen for high overclocking, the LN2 mode helps to remove the cold-boot bug problems in CPUs.
- Slow Mode Switch: To stabilize the system for extreme overclocking, use Slow Mode to operate the processor at its lowest frequency.
- Retry Button: When a forced shutdown is required, restart the system right away.
- To boot using the BIOS’s default settings, use the “Safe Boot” button.
DIY Friendly Design
Graphics Card EZ Release
To meet customer demands, ASRock changed the PCIe slot installation process, making it simple to install and remove the graphics card.
Professional Overclocking
CPU Heater Header
It is designed to improve overclocking results by preventing CPU SoC Tile freezing during LN2 intense overclocking with up to 42W of heating power by duty. It is equipped with a heater header that makes it simple to connect ceramic heating pads into the CPU socket.
Dual Thunderbolt 4 Type-C
It links a variety of devices with a single Thunderbolt 4 connection and allows for lightning-fast data transmission up to 40Gbps.
Premium PCB Solution
Server-Grade Ultra Low-Loss PCB
By enhancing signal integrity, the server-grade ultra low-loss PCB enables the motherboard to support PCIe 5.0 for both graphics cards and M.2 SSDs. It also enhances memory OC capability to provide the highest possible memory performance.
