Threadripper PRO workstation board

The ASRock WRX80 CREATOR R2.0 is an Extended ATX server motherboard built for AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3000 and 5000 WX series processors in the sWRX8 socket. It targets professionals who need eight-channel DDR4 memory and seven full-length PCIe 4.0 x16 slots for GPU compute or high-speed expansion cards.

Dual 10 GbE and IPMI change daily workflow

Two Marvell AQC113CS 10 Gigabit LAN ports and a dedicated ASPEED AST2500 IPMI interface with iKVM and vMedia let administrators manage the system remotely even when the OS is down. The onboard 7.1-channel Realtek ALC4050H/ALC1220 audio with NE5532 headphone amplifier supports 600 Ohm headsets for critical listening tasks.

Install in deep EATX chassis with care

The 14-layer server-grade PCB and XXL aluminium heatsink assembly add weight and height; verify case clearance before mounting. Eight 288-pin DDR4 slots require matched registered ECC modules to reach the 2 TB limit, and M.2 NVMe RAID 5 needs extra expansion cards not included. Builders who need more than seven x16 slots or a different socket should look elsewhere.
