Product Showcase

When we place the motherboard at an angle we see the AMD Socket sTRX4. It will support only Ryzen Threadripper 3000 series (and newer), processors. The board has a 2x 8-pin power headers available for the processor. The board has an advanced and improved power design, a good 16 phases for Vcore (70A) phases to cope with the many-core processors and their needs in energy. Storage ports then -- the board is equipped with eight SATA3 ports. Under the heatsinks you can tuck away two M2 SSDs, and then with the extra DIMM.2 module, you can add another two, all cooled with a heatsink. The 5th one you'll find at the rear of the board. With a total of five NVMe PCIe Gen3/Gen4 x4 M.2 connectors on board you can create extreme storage solutions. The memory DIMM slots have been reinforced with metal shielding. As stated on the previous page it supports single, dual and quad-channel with support up-to DDR4 4400 (O.C.) and starts at 2133 MHz memory modules. 8 x DDR4 DIMM sockets can sport up to 256 GB of system memory. There are some normal-sized and micro buttons available to be able to power on and reset directly from the motherboard. You'll also spot embedded, and included a LED strip header. The chipset is cooled with an active fan, however, this fan could not be heard during our testing.  In terms of eye-candy, of course, you'll spot a color OLED display and ASUS Aura Sync RGB lighting, including two additional RGB headers and two addressable headers. This board is packed yo!
