The ASRock X670E Taichi motherboard comes in a large cardboard package. The front is themed in black and gold. You can also note the Taichi logo on the front and sides which looks great. The front side also lists down support for AMD’s Ryzen 7000 “Zen 4” processors, DDR5 memory and PCIe Gen 5.0.
The backside of the package lists the specifications and special features of the motherboard such as the 24+2+1 Power Phase design that uses 105A SPS, Enhanced USB4 Type-C ports, Blazing M.2 Gen5 Fan heatsink and several other features.
Inside the package is another box that contains the accessories at the bottom. It is very easy to access although the accessories and each of them are nicely packed in two compartments.
Following is the full list of accessories in the package.
1 x User Manual
4 x SATA Data Cables
1 x Wireless Dongle USB Bracket
1 x Blazing M.2 Gen5 Fan Heatsink
1 x ASRock WiFi 2.4/5/6 GHz Antenna
4 x Screws for M.2 Sockets
1 x Standoff for M.2 Socket
The motherboard is housed above the accessories and has anti-static wrapping to protect it from any built-up electrical resistance that can affect the board. One of the most important accessories in the package is the Blazing M.2 Fan heatsink which is an entirely separate heatsink unit with an active fan cooler and a thermal pad underneath it for PCIe M.2 SSDs. The whole unit has a single 4-pin connector coming oui from it to power the fan. It is up to you if you want to use it passively or with the active fan cooler.

The ASRock X670E Taichi is a very loaded motherboard, one that looks very premium for its $500 US pricing. The whole gold and black look on it look super appealing.
