Nice breakdown there.

So the professional fatality is their top of the line? Will the soundblaster audio be a significant improvement over the onboard on the taichi?

I'd say it's not worth it, but I was originally going for the K4, got impatient.

I've not experienced any problems on the beta BIOS, booting from an NVMe M.2. SSD, using the onboard sound and LAN.

Just to clarify booting is not the issue here (at least in my case), it's the initial POST which is slow. Meaning from when you power on/reset the PC to when you actually get something on screen (i.e. Asrock UEFI logo).

I get that also, sometimes twice.

I missed that AM4 breakdown, a nice reference point/ sales graphic.

I know, boot was referring to the entire boot process, from POST to into OS. On the latest BETA BIOS 1.94A? it's nice and quick, when I did boot from 1.50 it did go through so many numbers I thought the mobo might be DOA though.

Any updates on the availability of the X370 K4? Weeks, months, years?

Besty · 5 Apr 2017 at 13:42

cant be long now for the K4 as stock is starting to dribble to e-tailors.

We're in the process of finding out as we speak. Asked specifically about the K4 this time, as a lot of people had preorders on it.

Great - thanks.

SinTex · 5 Apr 2017 at 15:21

Sadly some of us are still waiting on Asrock X370 Professional Gaming mobo, pls feel free to check on delivery eta for those :-)

I'm glad I snapped up the taichi when it was available last week, stock seems to have dried up everywhere

Same, been loving my taichi issue free.

I am still on 1.6 on the Taichi, is it worth using the beta 1.94A that 8 Pack is using in his bundles.
