Ultimate power for professional productivityThe ASUS Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI II is engineered to unleash the incredible power of the latest AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper™ Pro series processors, with support for overclocking to dip into untapped potential and performance. This reliable multi-core CPU foundation is the ideal choice for professional creative workloads like video editing and 3D rendering. Additionally, seven PCIe® 4.0 slots with SafeSlot fortification can deliver exceptional performance for the latest high-powered graphics cards and storage devices.FUNCTION-FIRST AESTHETICSLow-profile professionalism​​With metallic black aluminum extrusions, stainless steel black mesh with highlighted details, and a transparent smoky gray I/O cover, Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI II presents a professional, low-profile look for content creators.​3 M.2 PCIe 4.0Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI II includes three M.2 and two U.2 slots wired to PCIe 4.0 x4 bandwidth. Creators working with massive video files can RAID together multiple NVMe devices for massive I/O bandwidth and seamless playback in their editing bays. These three M.2 slots rest under dedicated heatsinks to prevent SSD throttling under heavy loads and comes with ASUS Q-Latch.More storageWith NVMe RAID support for Ryzen™ Threadripper™ PRO processors, unused CPU PCIe® 4.0 lanes can be assigned to storage, allowing you to create a bootable RAID array with multiple M.2 SSDs to provide incredible throughput — up to 8x faster than individual PCIe® 3.0 x4 SSDs. RAID can also be configured with PCIe® 3.0 SSDs.* With included ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen 4 card. RAID is limited to a maximum of 10 NVMe SSDs on the AMD WRX80 platform.Supreme memory capabilityThe ASUS Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI II supports ECC memory to automatically detect and correct data corruption, reducing the chance of system crashes. Being infused with proprietary memory trace layout that improve signal integrity and mitigate noise, this motherboard enables DDR4 memory overclocking with maxed-out speeds to provide better memory performance for a diverse range of workloadsWiFi 6EOnboard WiFi 6E technology takes advantage of the newly available radio spectrum in the 6 GHz band. It provides up to three times the bandwidth of the 5 GHz band and up to seven 160 MHz bands to deliver ultrafast wireless networking speeds and improved capacity as well as better performance in dense wireless environments.*WiFi 6E availability and features are dependent on regulatory limitations and co-existence with 5 GHz WiFi.SERVER-GRADE REMOTE MANAGEMENTASMB9-iKVM for remote managementAn integrated BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) is a key feature for workstations. It uses an Intel X550 dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet controller, with one port dedicated to the BMC to provide the intelligence for its IPMI architecture. The BMC manages the interface between system-management software and platform hardware. Administrators can remotely communicate with the BMC to take some corrective actions — such as resetting or power cycling a system.6-pin Power connectorsTwo additional PCIe 6-pin power connectors can add power output stability when creators use many graphic cards onboard.Actively cooled heatsinkThe heatsink fin density is optimized to maximize surface area while maintaining a low-resistance exhaust path. The custom low-noise fan features a high-durability bearing with a 60,000-hour L10* lifespan.* L10 bearing life is a standard metric that specifies the number of hours that 90% of the bearing are expected to continue successfully operating, as a minimum.M.2 heatsinksThree M.2 slots are covered by heatsinks to combattemperature-induced throttling that can affect performance during heavy, sustained storage loads.Side-mounted connectorsUnique side-mounted connectors on the front-panel of the chassis keep cables away from the graphics cards and provide cleaner routing, easier management and a streamlined installation process.BIOS Flashback™Users can place a BIOS file onto a FAT32-formatted USB drive and simply plug it into the USB BIOS FlashBack™ port and press a button to update the (UEFI) BIOS. Updates can be made even if memory or CPU aren't present.Immersive Audio experienceThe Realtek ALC4080 audio codec features high quality 120 dB SNR stereo playback output and 113 dB SNR recording input to offer pristine audio quality and is supported by EMI shielding and separate PCB layers for the left and right channels to maintain signal integrity. Additionally, DTS:X Ultra technology enables louder, immersive 3D spatial audio.Power pre-regulatorReduces power-input noise to ensure consistent performance.Audio shieldingSeparates analog/digital signal domains, significantly reducing multi-lateral interference.Integrated amplifierCapable of driving high-impedance headphones, without rolling-off high or low frequencies.Separate layer for left and right tracksEnsures minimal crosstalk between audio paths.De-pop circuitReduces start-up popping noise to all audio outputs.Premium audio capacitorsPremium parts provide an immersive sound signature, with exceptional fidelity.Solid compatibility validationPro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI II has been extensively tested and validated under various environments and applications for compatibility and reliability.Protect your graphics cardSafeSlot is a PCIe® slot reengineered by ASUS to provide optimized attachment and shearing resistance. Manufactured in a single step using a new insert-molding process, SafeSlot fortifies the slot with metal for enhanced strength and durability.FOR RELIABILITY24/7 reliabilityOptimized for around-the-clock operations, Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI II is tested under temperatures of up to 45° C and humidity of up to 80% in order to ensure it can thrive in different environments.
