Those are US prices before taxes, which varies depending what state you live on (I lived in Miami, Florida had 7% tax). For UK prices you need to add 20% VAT.

Anyone got prices for Taichi?
Add 20% VAT mate. Jesus Christ, why do we have to go through this every time someone brings up US prices?
Saw elsewhere it was listed for £250.

That makes the 3900 £468. Reckon the retailer will put £10-20 on top of that. About £485 is my final estimate.

that can date distribution bought it to work out exchange rate - also factors in is the amount bought . something like 2k units over 1k unit order you'll get them for $3-8 cheaper - not much but when your talking hundreds it adds up
Well if you are looking for a nice board at not huge price, ASRock X570 Taichi is $229. That's only $20 more than the X470 launch price, their cheapest board will be around $160, so not a huge amount less than Asus but probably better specced for the cost.
Quoting myself from the end of May re: Taichi pricing.
They put up $20 since then, but still a great deal.
$229 for the X570 Taichi? I might return my CH7 Hero and get one.Quoting myself from the end of May re: Taichi pricing.

Think you'll find its fine for 2 sticks upto 3600/3733mhz any faster than that and you want a 4 stick setup.

Phantom Gaming X is their highest end board, Taichi is basically the same board without the extra LAN port and a different colour scheme etc, other than that they are extremely similar.
I personally really like how the Taichi looks, it just seems more sophisticated and better build. It must be because the Gaming X has a lot of white parts.
Asrock boards look very pleasing, too bad most of it is hidden under other components.
- AMD Ryzen 9 3950X: $749 (about £590) + VAT = £708 expected price ~£709-719
- AMD Ryzen 9 3900X: $499 (about £390)+ VAT = £468 expected price ~469-479
- AMD Ryzen 7 3800X: $399 (about £310)+ VAT = £372 expected price ~369-379
- AMD Ryzen 7 3700X: $329 (about £260)+ VAT = £312 expected price ~319-329
- AMD Ryzen 5 3600X: $249 (about £200)+ VAT = £240 expected price ~239-249
- AMD Ryzen 5 3600: $199 (about £160)+ VAT = £192 expected price ~189-199
That price list is also a bit out of date. With today's exchange rate it's £476 including VAT. So £479.99 might be the price we get.
I agree the new Taichi looks really good. I might return my CH7 and get one depending on the price. Is the BIOS as good as the one in Asus boards?

The Taichi though looks like it has worse VRMs compared to lower end Gigabyte boards. Going by the Buildzoid videos.
That, and the UEFI bios hasn't been very good. Both for ease of use and because it's been fairly buggy.
Saying that, I will be sticking with my X370 Taichi. At least util I have a use for PCIe 4.
