Asrock WRX90 WS EVO AMD sTR5 EEB Motherboard

Asrock WRX90 WS EVO | AMD WRX90 Workstation Motherboard

The Asrock WRX90 WS EVO motherboard AMD WRX90 Socket sTR5 EEB is engineered for professional workstations. It supports AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO processors for high-speed computing. This board delivers dependable performance for design and rendering tasks. It features a robust 14-layer PCB design for stability.

Professional Workstation Foundation

This motherboard uses a server-grade ultra-low-loss PCB. It improves signal integrity for PCIe 5.0 support. You get stable traces for graphics cards and M.2 SSDs. The design also enhances memory overclocking potential. A 2oz copper PCB reduces temperatures and improves energy efficiency. This ensures reliable operation under heavy workloads.

Extreme Memory and Storage Capability

The board supports eight DDR5 RDIMM ECC memory slots. You can install up to 2TB of memory for large datasets. ECC compatibility automatically detects and corrects data corruption. This reduces system crash risks and ensures stability. Storage options include two PCIe Gen5 M.2 slots and four SATA III connectors. Server-grade SlimSAS and MCIO connections provide fast expansions.

Advanced Connectivity and Networking

You get seven PCIe Gen5 x16 slots for multiple GPUs and add-on cards. The board includes dual 10GbE LAN ports via Intel X710-AT2 controller. This offers lightning-fast transfer speeds for media centres and workstations. USB4 Type-C ports deliver up to 40Gbps data transfer. Fast charging technology supports PD 3.0 at 27W. Note that Wi-Fi is not specified; confirm wireless needs separately.

Robust Power and Thermal Design

The composite VRM heatsink uses active cooling fans and heat pipes. This provides maximum heat dissipation for stable overclocking. A multi-PSU adaptor cable allows secondary power supply connections. You can build high-performance systems with wider wattage combinations. The board also includes an Aspeed AST2600 BMC controller for remote management via IPMI.
