ASUS Unleashes Overclocking Capability with W790 Workstation Motherboards Supporting ECC R-DIMM DDR5

ASUS has recently announced that its W790 workstation motherboards support ECC R-DIMM DDR5 RAM at up to 6800 MHz, which unlocks overclocking capability to unleash even more performance potential. 

The memory capability of up to 2 TB RDIMM DDR5 memory empowers the next generation of compute-intensive professional workloads. ASUS has also worked with leading memory partners, such as G.SKILL, Kingston, and V-Color, to establish multiple memory validations and widely support 8-channel and quad-channel memory architectures. The Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE now supports up to 128 GB (8x16 GB) at 6800 MT/s, and the Pro WS W790-ACE supports up to 64 GB (4x16 GB) of DDR5 RAM at 6800 MT/s, ensuring that ASUS W790 workstation build supports a wide variety of scenarios.

In addition to memory capabilities, selecting the right CPU cooler for a workstation build can also be a challenge, considering the different CPU sockets and form factors used in desktops. Therefore, ASUS has partnered with cooling experts, including Enermax, EK, and Noctua, to provide air and liquid coolers designed for the LGA4677 socket used by the latest Intel Xeon workstation processors. These cooling solutions are designed to offer optimal heat transfer and heat dissipation capacity through the cooler base, coolant tubes, heat pipes, and radiator fins.
