It is aimed at rendering farms, video post-production suites, simulation work, AI experimentation and any studio that needs several full-bandwidth GPUs and a stack of NVMe drives in the same chassis. Quad-channel DDR5 with registered ECC support means large datasets stay in memory and stay correct — a real consideration for South African studios running long overnight renders where a single silent bit flip costs a full re-run. The 10G LAN port matters too if you are pulling footage off a NAS all day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho should not buy this\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are building a gaming PC, buy an AM5 or LGA1851 board instead — Threadripper's per-core clocks and platform cost make no sense for games, and you will spend more on the CPU and RDIMM memory than on a complete Ryzen 9 system. The E-ATX board needs a genuinely large chassis with matching standoffs, high-wattage power delivery and serious airflow; it will not fit a normal mid-tower. Registered ECC DDR5 is required, so ordinary desktop UDIMM kits will not work and are more expensive to source locally. This is professional equipment with professional running costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRobust multi-phase VRM with heavy heatsinks sized for high-core-count Threadripper parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple PCIe 5.0 expansion slots for multi-GPU and accelerator configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeveral onboard M.2 NVMe slots for scratch disks and fast project storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual wired networking including a 10 Gigabit port for studio and NAS environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorkstation-oriented BIOS with detailed monitoring, fan control and IPMI-class management features\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: ASRock TRX50 WS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChipset: AMD TRX50\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocket: AMD sTR5 (Ryzen Threadripper 7000 Series)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm Factor: E-ATX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemory: DDR5 RDIMM registered ECC, 4 slots, quad-channel, very large capacities supported at high workstation-rated speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpansion Slots: Multiple PCIe 5.0 x16 slots plus additional PCIe expansion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorage: Multiple M.2 NVMe slots plus SATA 6Gb\/s ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNetworking: 10 Gigabit LAN and 2.5 Gigabit LAN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio: Realtek HD Audio with rear analogue outputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear I\/O Highlights: Dual LAN ports, high-speed USB Type-C and Type-A, BIOS flashback and clear CMOS buttons, audio jacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB: Extensive USB 3.2 Gen2\/Gen2x2 and USB 2.0 rear ports plus front-panel headers including Type-C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 3 Year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHAT'S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eASRock TRX50 WS motherboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSATA data cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM.2 mounting screws and standoffs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrewdriver and torque tool for the sTR5 socket retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick installation guide and support media\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy ASRock?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eASRock's workstation line is engineered for machines that run flat out for days at a time rather than for benchmark screenshots.
