The Gaming i7 maintains all the things that made the Taichi great. Triple GPU support (even with 28-lane CPUs), triple network connections, PWM on every fan header, dual 3.0 x4 M.2 slots, and dual UEFI. On top of that, it corrects the shortcomings of the Taichi, namely CPU and RAM overclocking. The CPU overclocking improvements are admittedly minor in terms of effect. In order to reach the CPU clock limit of either board, you would need to spend more on cooling than on the board, which is a very unlikely scenario. The RAM bandwidth improvements are quite substantial, however, and very welcome.
