Thanks guy's. Both of you agree Aorus Pro is decent solution!
ASrock Taichi better or worse for 50$ more right now?
Taichi 308$
Aorus Pro 258$
Personally, I love the look of the Taichi boards. I've got a Z270 build with one. These days, when I'm buying a mobo, I have a few things I look for that I find to be important.
1-VRM rating. I just don't want to have to question weather or not the VRMs in my mobo are delivering power to the CPU properly, cleanly and evenly.
2-BIOS layout and availability of resources specifically dedicated to that exact BIOS. (youtube videos for example) I'm not an expert by any means on much of this stuff, and it becomes incredibly confusing trying to decipher different companies vernacular. (the only frustrating thing about my Taichi board actually)
3-Back Panel Features and On Board I/O count to fit my needs.
1-I believe most of the Aorus motherboards for X570 have pretty highly rated VRMs. I'm pretty sure the Taichi one does as well.
2-BIOS - as I said before, personally I prefer the Aorus BIOS because of the readily available information on it, but do some research and see what one looks best to you.
3-Back Panel Features and I/O is pretty comparable. I noticed the Aorus boards include 4 USB 2 ports and 6 USB 3, while the Taichi does 8 USB 3. Similar band width, I preferred the 4 USB 2 ports because then there is one for Mouse, Keyboard, Controller and my USB speaker. Leaving the 6 USB 3 ports wide open, as well as the 2 on the front panel. The BIOS and CMOS buttons on the back of the Taichi are very appealing though. If you're going to be overclocking your RAM I always suggest having the ability to reset your BIOS or clear your CMOS easily available because if you mess up a timing setting on your RAM it can cause all sorts of boot problems in my experience.
Actually, I'm thinking if you enjoy the Asrock BIOS, then I'd suggest that one, just based on how I would approach comparing the two if I were buying one for myself. It would come down to the BIOS for me in the end.
