MSI Ready con scheda madre WS WRX80 per Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5000

MSI Is ready with the monstrous WS WRX80 motherboard for AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO workstation processors. Slotted in the company’s MSI PRO lineup, the board is based on the AMD WRX80 chipset, features the sWRX8 CPU socket, and comes with out of the box support for Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5000WX processors based on the “Zen 3” architettura, as well as previous-generation Threadripper 3000WX “Zen 2” processori. Built in the E-ATX form-factor, the board draws power from a 24-pin ATX, due EPS a 8 pin, as well as two 6-pin PCIe power. It uses an expensive 14-layer PCB, and the CPU VRM solution is made up of 11 phases, utilizzando 105 A power-stages.

The sWRX8 socket is flanked by eight DDR4, each with a dedicated 1DPC path to the processor’s 8-channel memory interface. There are seven PCI-Express 4.0 slot x16, all wired to the processor and running at full x16 bandwidth. There could be as many as four M.2 NVMe slots with PCI-Express 4.0 x4 wiring, with an included M.2 to PCIe card with four additional M.2 slots. Other storage options include two U.2 ports, and eight SATA 6 Gbps. Networking options include 10 GbE, 2.5 GbE, and Wi-Fi 6E with Bluetooth 5.2. There’s also an ASpeed AST2600 BMC IPMI remote-management chip with its dedicated 1 GbE management port. USB connectivity includes 20 Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 porti. We’ll know more about this board as Threadripper PRO 5000WX nears retail availability. Right now it’s exclusive to the Lenovo ThinkCenter P620 pre-built workstation.
