Low-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.

Multi-GPU Support

Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI II features seven PCIe® 4.0 x16 slots for high-powered graphics cards, enabling enhanced performance for professional design, modeling and simulation, and rendering applications.

Intel® Dual 10G Ethernet

Featuring dual onboard 10G LAN ports powered by the cutting-edge Intel® X550-AT2 Ethernet controller, Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI II makes short work of multi-terabyte transfers from your creativities and provides server-grade connectivity with low-latency.

USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-C

The latest USB standard doubles transfer bandwidth by opening another USB 3.2 Gen 2 lane to achieve its maximum throughput of up to 20 Gbps. In addition to blazingly fast data-transfer speeds, USB 3.2 offers easy connectivity and ultimate flexibility via USB-C ports.

Front-Panel Connector

The front panel USB 3.2 Gen 2 connector is ready for next-gen PC cases and devices.

3 M.2 PCIe 4.0

Pro 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 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.

Supreme Memory Capability

The 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 workloads.

WiFi 6E

Onboard 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.

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.

16 Power Stages

Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI II’s VRM is comprised of 16 power stages, delivering the power and efficiency that the latest AMD processors demand.

6-pin Power Connectors

Two additional PCIe 6-pin power connectors can add power output stability when creators use many graphic cards onboard.

SOC and DRAM Heatsink

Since mass and airflow are critically important, our VRM heatsink is manufactured with skived, high aspect ratio thin fins. An SOC heatsink uses a semi-passive fan to draw heat away from the dual 10G LAN.

Actively Cooled Heatsink

The heatsink fin density is optimised to maximise 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.

Immersive Audio Experience

The 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.

Solid Compatibility Validation

Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE SE WIFI II has been extensively tested and validated under various environments and applications for compatibility and reliability.

Protect Your Graphics Card

SafeSlot is a PCIe® slot reengineered by ASUS to provide optimised 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.

24/7 Reliability

Optimised 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.
