Taichi 2.00 Official BIOS is out: http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/X370 Taichi/index.asp#BIOS

I'll update to this later in the hope there's some more memory compatibility tweaks that aren't mentioned.

There might be some memory tweaks, but the big memory compatibility BIOS updates are all due next month.

Just flashed and no real difference or performance boost.

Just to note, if you want to let Ryzen downclock at idle, adjust only the first PSTATE to your desired overclock.

In my case 3900 down clocks to 2200 at idle and volts lower from 1.35v to 0.4v using PSTATE 1

Im sure the sleep bug has been fixed in this release.

Ive benchmarked after waking from sleep and the scores are the same as a fresh boot.

Updating from beta bios to 2.0 means the 3200 xmp profile no longer works with my Kingston RAM :mad:

Wow I was on 1.6 and my ram is now slower. Wouldn't recommend upgrading

Chewie · 6 Apr 2017 at 20:38

Upgraded to 2.0 without problems. Noticed a few differences in the bios layout and a few new options but performances wise nothing to report at the moment.

Also, regarding the slow POST "problem" I found that disabling the option called "AM4 Advanced Boot Training" makes a huge difference, in a good way. Not sure what the option is supposed to do though...

Can't even POST at 2666 using 2.0.

I have gone back to beta bios 1.94, RAM is back at 3200 without issue.

Chewie · 7 Apr 2017 at 00:40

Additional update, I can confirm that memory latency with microcode update included in the latest bios.
Running the AIDA64 memory latency test I got 76.2ns versus 84.5ns when I tested yesterday

Would it be possible to upload the BIOS somewhere? They've removed it from their website and I was foolish enough to expect 2.0 to be better.

Somebody definitely did know, but not us handling the social bits for the UK. Sorry if you felt misled, we've acted on and conveyed the info the sales people have given us.

We're excited too. Do share pics once you receive it, will you?

It may well be just to mess with people's OCDs. In fact, it's starting to bug us now that you mention it.

You asked for it, here it is...the super carrier...there are many like it but this one is MINE!!!!

Looking all sexy on my test bench!!!

This just got serious!

teh_captain · 7 Apr 2017 at 12:10

@AsrockMB - is there any indication when more X370 Taichi's will be in stock?

Dianbobo · 7 Apr 2017 at 14:34

@ASROCK Rep....

Any idea when the J4205-ITX will be available to buy....?

http://www.asrock.com/MB/Intel/J4205-ITX/index.asp

Don't bother.

Bought a different board

Scougar · 7 Apr 2017 at 19:29

@AsrockMB Can you please let us know what the mosfets/vrm's are on the AB350 Gaming K4 and the PRO 4 please? There is some debate that they are subpar in quality even though you have higher phases than most other manufacturers B350 boards. (And I am keen to get either the K4, or the PRO 4).

Thanks.
