there is a second CPUfan/AIO connector to the left of the pcie5 M.2 slot, the rest of the chassisfan connectors are at the bottom. Nice short overview of the mobo BTW.
See, that's the issue here. CPU_FAN2/WP is typically next to the CPU_FAN1 but they shifted it to that position which is commonly a CHA_FANx for rear exhaust. So unless you do not have a rear exhaust fan occupying it, yes you can use it.
@@goldfries Would I have a problem daisy-chaining and connecting a total of 9 A-RGB fans to this motherboard then? (3 of them will be part of a 360mm AiO too). Worst case scenario I connect the AiO to the 1 connector and then daisy-chain the other 6 to the other connector, right?
@@mommaduck79 depends on what current each of those fans drawing, each fan connector on a motherboard can typically supply 1-2 amps, I normally don’t recommend daisy chaining more than 3 fans to one connector, as a higher current fan can draw like 0.3 amps so 3 of them will comes close to the max current a connector can support. The information of how much current a connector on a motherboard can supply is normally available in the motherboard manual, how much current fan need should be printed on their boxes (or their center label) as well.

i'm starting to have a lot of respect for what asrock has been putting out lately for the price. this board with no wifi is $170 usd right now and we get pcie 5 m.2 and enough power to fully run a 7950x. pcie 5 on the gpu would have been nice but those cards aren't coming anytime soon and their b650e steel legend is the cheapest board to offer pcie 5 on both the gpu and m2. so asrock is being generous on the am5 platform in my opinion compared to other brands. hopefully ill put together an am5 system soon and retire this beta alder lake platform i've been disappointed with.
I sent the Aorus back and got the Asrock. Now it crashes mid game Battlefield 2042. Also getting kicked out because anticheat can't authenticate. Randomly the CPU overheats and the whole computer shuts off. I turned off the auto setting for the CPU in the bios and set up direct settings lowering voltage and setting maximum clock speed to 15% lower then 7700x can do. And it still randomly overheats and crashes. I watch the cpu while running a game push to 5.5 ghz even though I set it to go no higher then 5.1 it's like the setting in the bios meant nothing.. I have also had 2 video card crashes with an error popping up that video card just stopped communicating. It's a brand new 4070 gigabyte. I just think this entire generation of computers parts suck.
I got Auros B650 and it won't update the bios, the B memory slots won't post with memory in them. The same ussue I had with the last Auros boards. I'm done with Gigabyte stuff, and Asus is really bad AM5 seeing videos of it burning up AMD 7950X3d cpus. So I order this and sending the Auros B650 back.
I heard people complaining about slow boot time, high vram temp, lower performance on this board. Have you noticed this? And have you updated to latest bios? .
@AdrianMuslim I am having all kinds of problems with this board worse then with Aorus B650. Crashing overheating and it's like bios settings don't matter. I try to slow down cpu clock speeds and lower auto voltage, but it randomly ramps up and overheats and shuts down anyway.
The CPU connectors on this board can draw a max of 528W and the 12 CPU VRMs at 50A each can handle up to 600A combined. The max socket power draw of the highest end Ryzens is 230W. Basically, this board should be fine with any Ryzen
The VRM is 4(x3)+1(x2)+1, just saying :) The RT3674AE is a Triple PWM Controller with 4+1+1 Phases. And just ignore the MISC Power, that's so minimal most mfg use a 24A or 30A buck converter. So this board has 14 virtuell phases and 5 real phases :)
@@redchua7421 its not bad. I only don't like the use of an old ALC897. The board would have sufficed with 4x2 VCore VRM, but they had to save $3 for a better audio-chip (ALC1220, ALC4080 for example) without reason. And if you have a 5.1 speaker setup at home, you are out of luck, because you miss the two extra analog outputs on the back. If you game only with your headsets, it won't matter much, but I doubt you could connect high-impedance headphones. ALC1220/ALC4080 have better audio-specs and an headphone amplifier. I wonder why nearly every mainboard manufacture decided using an ALC897. I hate the marketing-speach especially from ASRock Marketing people because it's factual false and there is no reason to hide the fact that this board is not really a 12 phase. At least ASRock avoids using the faulty i226-V and i225(3)-V chipsets which have trouble with losing connection. One more crictic aspect of the board is, while it has the room, they did not expand on USB ports. Just for gaming it's enough, but if you have more peripherials it would help, The B650 Livemixer shows it's possible and such an external port is not that much of a cost savings. If you have the space, the LiveMixer is the better board with better VRM 7(x2) and SPS (Smart Power Stages) instead of DrMOS (Integrated Driver with MOSFETs).
@@redchua7421 depends on what you are using it for and what you like to spending on it. If the Riptide suffices for you, it's a cheaper choice compared with something else and will be good enough. If you could spend the extra I would use the LiveMixer, because no worries about USB ports and more flexible (imho) (and set the LLC to level 3 or the lowest you can get it).

Glad to hear that, it's a very solid board.

Hi, can you please do a one hour loop of R23 with 7950x on b650m pg Riptide and the taichi and please share the score and temperature?
Can I use fan splitters for watercooling? Since the board doesn't have enough pins to connect the fans...
Yes you can, the rest of the fan headers are at the bottom but if you really are out of ports, yes use splitter.
I bought one of this model here in Brazil, I'm looking forward to its arrival at home hehehe
