  Ultrafast Connectivity to Power Creativity
  
   
  
  3 M.2 PCIe 4.0
  
  Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI 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 slots rest under dedicated heatsinks to prevent SSD throttling under heavy loads.
  
   
  
  More storage
  
  With 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.
  
   
  
  ECC memory support
  
  AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO processors offer unrivaled memory bandwidth and supports 8 memory channels, up to 2048 GB. It supports ECC memory to automatically detect and correct data corruption, reducing the chance of system crashes to ensure your creativity consistency and stability.
  
   
  
  Intel WiFi 6
  
  The Intel WiFi 6 AX200 module is compatible with the 802.11ax standard and pushes theoretical peak bandwidth up to an incredible 2.4 Gbps. Perhaps more importantly for power users, it's optimized for more efficient operation on crowded networks with a lot of competing traffic. Pair your motherboard with ASUS WiFi 6 routers to fully experience the networking potential of WiFi 6.
  
   
  
   
  
   
  
   
  
   
  
  Ultrafast Connectivity Delivers Creativity
  
   
  
  ASMB9-iKVM for remote management
  
  An 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 connectors
  
  Two additional PCIe 6-pin power connectors can add power output stability when creators use many graphic cards onboard.
  
   
  
   
  
   
  
   
  
   
  
  Thorough Thermal Design
  
   
  
  Actively cooled heatsink
  
  The 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.
  
   
  
  M.2 heatsinks
  
  Three M.2 slots are covered by heatsinks to combat
  
  temperature-induced throttling that can affect performance during heavy, sustained storage loads.
  
   
  
  Side-mounted connectors
  
  Unique 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.
  
   
  
  Pre-mounted I/O shield
  
  The patented I/O shield is finished in sleek matte black and comes pre-mounted for easy installation on the motherboard and is designed to allow air flow to keep the heat away from the board.
  
   
  
  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.
