CPU AND MEMORY OVERCLOCKING READY

For AMD TR5 series workstations and high-end desktop (HEDT) models, AMD offers CPU and DRAM overclocking options. To fully leverage the performance of these processors, ASUS has incorporated an innovative dual PSU design on the Pro WS TRX50-SAGE WIFI motherboard. Along with robust power delivery and advanced cooling modules, this board exhibits remarkable stability during overclocking. Hardware switches and optimized BIOS options on the motherboard provide overclocking enthusiasts with greater convenience when pushing their systems to the limit. You may further boost your memory performance by enabling EXPO settings. The comprehensive synergy of EXPO and ECC R-DIMM further combines exceptional performance with outstanding stability, setting a new standard for workstation and high-end desktop computing.

INNOVATIVE COOLING AND ROBUST PERFORMANCE

• Power Stages in VRM Area

  The Pro WS TRX50-SAGE WIFI’s voltage regulator module setup is comprised of (18*2)+3+4+4 power stages, delivering the power and efficiency that the latest AMD Ryzen processors demand and stability for extreme overclocking.

• Active VRM Cooling Solutions

  The extruded aluminum heatsinks on the MOSFETs and chokes contain active cooling to greatly enhance thermal efficiency, while fins and hidden heat pipes also significantly improve heat dissipation.

• ProCool II Connectors

  ProCool II connectors ensure a snug and reliable connection to the 12V CPU input. This second generation features improved heat dissipation and a metal shroud.

• Onboard PCIe Power Connectors

  An 8-pin and 6-pin PCIe cable connector built into the motherboard can ensure power output stability when multiple graphic cards need to be installed.

ECC R-DIMM Memory Support

The Pro WS TRX50-SAGE WIFI motherboard boasts a robust design featuring four R-DIMM DDR5 memory module slots with ECC support, a feature that improves the prevention of system crashes and data corruption, thereby ensuring that a workstation remains reliable and responsive for professional demands.

Multi-GPU Support

The Pro WS TRX50-SAGE WIFI motherboard features several PCIe® 5.0/4.0 x16 slots that provide flexible system configurability and expandability. With high-powered graphics cards, it can bring enhanced performance in modelling, simulation and rendering applications.

Ultrafast Networking

• Marvell® AQtion 10 Gbp Ethernet

  With up to 10 times the bandwidth of standard gigabit Ethernet, streaming uncompressed 4K UHD videos, performing system backups and transferring large files is now faster than ever before.

• Intel® 2.5 Gb Ethernet

  Provides up to 2.5 faster transfers versus standard 1 Gb Ethernet connections for faster downloads and smoother high-res video streaming.

THOROUGH THERMAL DESIGN

• Chipset Cooling

  A dedicated chipset heatsink draws heat away to maintain optimum operating temperatures.

• 10 Gb LAN Cooling

  An ideally located and extended heatsink on the 10 Gb Ethernet controller ensures the stable performance of high-speed networking anytime, anywhere.

• M.2 Cooling

  All three M.2 slots come with large heatsinks to keep NVMe storage at the optimal operating temperature for consistent performance and reliability. M.2 thermal pads on select slots go even further to ensure peak performance from next-gen drives.

SafeSlot & SafeDIMM

PCIe 5.0 is 2x faster than PCIe 4.0, so ASUS adapted its SMT manufacturing process to ensure the highest data speeds for its SafeSlot design. SafeSlot is a reinforced metal sheath added to a PCIe slot to keep an expansion card firmly installed. Meanwhile, strong ASUS SafeDIMM sheathes support and protect memory modules on ASUS Pro series workstation motherboards, empowering users to insert modules with speed, accuracy and confidence.

Q-Latch

The innovative Q-Latch makes it easy to install or remove an M.2 SSD without the need for specific tools. This design employs a simple locking mechanism to secure the drive and neatly eliminate traditional screws.

Built for around-the-clock operation

Optimized for 24/7 operation, the Pro WS TRX50-SAGE WIFI motherboard is tested to work at up to 45°C and 80% humidity, ensuring it can handle diverse operating environments.

Plenty of High Speed USB Ports

• USB 20Gbps with Quick Charge 4+

  Front panel connector offers a transfer rate of up to 20 Gbps Supports Quick Charge 4+ up to 27 watts, to charge devices faster than previous types of USB ports

• Embrace Next-Generation USB4®

  Faster than ever and future-proof; once connected to this motherboard’s onboard USB4 header, the USB4 expansion card will enable bi-directional speeds of up to 40 Gbps and provide ample power to fast-charge devices.
